Guest Posted July 8, 2021 Share Posted July 8, 2021 Asylum > Roanoke > Murder House > Coven > Apocalypse > Cult > Freakshow > Hotel > 1984 I didn't even finish 1984. I thought the beginning was great, but then I lost interest in it. Asylum and Roanoke are my for sure favorites, though. Roanoke I thought was one of the most interested premises for a season. However there were some execution flaws that made it not beat out Asylum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I'm a huge fan of 80s slasher films... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delulu Rogers 7,235 Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 MH, Asylum, Coven and apocalypse are all top tiers. Cult, Freakshow, 1984, and Roanoke are all just okay. None are better or worse than the one another. By far the worst season is hotel. The season made literally no sense, too many plot holes, and gaga's face seemed frozen all the time from all the fillers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd recommend the first three, Murder House, Asylum, Coven, and then decide if you want to watch more. But Roanoke is in my top as well as the rest are kinda meh! They say Murder House is the best, but Im not sure if Im interested in this show without The Countess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Savage 1,783 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 On 7/8/2021 at 6:12 AM, Monsterclaw said: This is going to be controversial but here we go 🤡 1.ASYLUM - Everything about this one is perfect And yes, that includes the aliens. I think that it was a cool idea to left some unanswered questions about them cause it fit the ominous and mysterious vibe they had and it also fit the season taking place in the 60s. The characters, the atmosphere, the psychological terror and the twists were amazing and its really sad that they dont take themself as seriously as they did back then. Also, it was truly horrific. 2.ROANOKE - Shoot me, arrest me, I dont care but I Love this one. I think the story is good, the setting is different and I enjoy this format - is fresh and original. It was also scary, although the gore was a bit too much sometimes. Also i know that Sarah Paulson hated doing that season and her character but I do love me some Audrey Tindall, she was a great comedic relief. 3.CULT - I think thats the only season that have tried to emulate the psychological horror of Asylum. The story is very good, although sometimes a bit too heavy handed with politics. It was very dark but had some great campy moments that felt(for the most part) natural and not forced. I also believe that people hate on it only because it is trendy to hate on it and I also think it was the last truly creative season. 4.FREAKSHOW/MURDER HOUSE - Its a tie for me. Freakshow holds a sentimental value for me because thats the season that got me into AHS. Twisty is probably the most horrific thing to come out of the show, although the rest of the season wasnt that scary. It had some psychological horror but it felt campy at the same time but I think they balanced it well. It was also the saddest season( I cried multiple times throughout). Murder House is a classic - i love the characters( for the most part) and the premise, although just like Freakshow, it drags for a little to long and it loses its horror aspect halfway through. The only thing that I dont like about this season is that they keep coming back to that house( Apocalypse, Stories) and it feels basic and uninspired. 5.COVEN - a fun season with some of the most memorable characters. I love the fashion and the overall vibe.I do think its VASTLY overrated and it led to the abomination called Apocalypse, only because some twinks were like ,, yaaas, so sassy, slay bitch” and even though i am a twink myself and i love some campy elements in a horror show, I also want to be scared And besides some disturbing gore I didnt feel that watching Coven. Love Kathy Bates, Angela Bassett, Emma Roberts And Jessica in it. 6.1984 - A fun season. I live for the homage to 80s horror flicks, the aesthetics were on point, same goes for music. I wish they did more with the premise though. Also i hate that they had to throw in ghosts again. Like please stop. I also think that the use of Richard Ramirez as a character was gross and in very poor taste. 7. Hotel - Loved The Countess, i genuinely think that Gaga did an amazing job, although i felt like they focused on the vampire plot a little too much. It is based after Hotel Cecil and although i live for the visuals and music, I think they could have gone in a more gritty, dark and claustrophobic direction. It was very opulent. I also think that the story felt apart due to one too many subplots and the finale was laughably bad, deffo the worst concluding episode of the series. It just got too campy, even though it seemed terryfying at first and then they just threw in a lot of gore sort of to make up for lack of actual horror. 8.apocalypse - pure trash. Just trash. K bye Cant wait for Stories And Double Feature You made some very necessary points. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
elijahfan 26,107 Posted July 10, 2021 Share Posted July 10, 2021 For me, the absolute best was asylum. Ever since Cult, I've been consistently let down by this show... But each year I keep hoping for the better. I also don't get the Freakshow hate, I think the Twisty and Dandy characters were highlights of the entire series.

I agree, although I ranked it as: Asylum > Roanoke > Murder House > Coven >Apocalypse > Cult > Freakshow > Hotel > 1984 Really, Apocalypse, Cult, and Freakshow move around a lot between them (although never surpass Coven) and are all seasons I enjoyed. Freakshow is very underrated and I’m not sure why since it serves musical numbers that you’d think would be more appreciated in this kind of forum. Hotel and 1984 were the only seasons I didn’t.
