Season 10's first half of the double feature series is brilliant. The story contains everything that one has come to desire in an AHS story: Horror, twists and turns, paranormal and supernatural themes, top shelf acting by our returning cast of professionals, fear, terror and ultimately a shocking and satisfying finale. WRONG. The finale to this otherwise great semi-season was NOT good. In fact it was downright disappointing and dissatisfying.
Ok enough of my finger wagging and discontent. The rest of the season was good, yet the end wasn't, ultimately leaving the audience feel as though we just finished watching one of those horror films comprised completely of a number of different well written scary stories, all of which tend to end in disaster with an unhappy, unsatisfying ending.
I give the first of the 2 double features a solid 8/10 rating. It would have been an easy 9/10 had they not bungled the conclusion episode "Winter Kills."
This feels exactly like Game of Thrones did with its amazing seasons...only to be left with a big fat dragon turd by Dan and Dave (writers) in the final seasons.
