The last episode of the season was better than I expected after the previous episode. That said, it had some of the same issues of the previous set of episodes. Of its pros, it does that much hoped for connecting with other series with Asylum‘s Lana Winters. It also puts the scare factor back up a […]

Overall, this episode was a bit of a letdown, bringing in even more unnecessary hand-held recording and characters. The episode returns to the Roanoke farm and it’s haunting inhabitants, only to focus once again on the people drama. That being said, it did make more use of ‘The Colony’ than usual.  Up to this point, […]

The eighth episode in the season brought back some of that much wanted American Horror Story otherworldly scare. Yet it still retained some of the human horror that took up most of the previous episode. The ridiculous mobile recording was pulled back a bit, yet in some cases the quality was even more contrastable to the professional […]

This episode, while full of scares, shocks and gore, was a little disappointing on the ghost aspect. The episode mainly focused on deaths by real people and once again The Colony felt underused. That said, Kathy Bates was not as she spent more time playing the mad actress Angela Mary Winstead. The meta feel of […]

The ‘twist’ in the season, that has been rumoured for a long time, was well worth the wait. The first half of the episode was dull and very meta but once we get into the story of the newly begun Return to Roankoke: 3 days in hell, the real scary story begins. Meta A good part […]

American Horror Story S6 E5 ‘Roanoke’ Review – ‘Chapter 5’

Although there had been talk of big twists, and possible double stories, this episode felt strangely final. It was also a bit anti-climatic if I’m being honest.  Is this a symptom of a desensitisation to deaths in shows? Was there not enough death for me to be particularly moved by those side characters that did […]

This episode carries on from where the last one left off, continuing to tell the story. It returns to tell the history of ‘The Lost Colony’ and of the house. The show moves well into American Horror Story territory, being scary at times. In particular the scares became more real, moving away from hidden or disappearing […]

This episode felt like progress as it brought most of our characters away from rationalising everything and delved deeper into the real plot. The episode opens with another short flash-forward piece which began to make this show feel like a real documentary. The episode then proceeded to follow the story of Lee’s lost daughter Flora […]

The first episode had mixed reviews (with the 3rd highest ratings for a season opener) and moved slowly, but episode two quickly brought that American Horror Story feel back. Moving a lot faster, bringing more scare and gore, and bringing in what the story is really about with that stellar cast really bringing things together. […]
