American Horror Story: The Complete First Season [Blu-ray]

Is there anything about American Horror Story that doesn’t scream, “I’m a cult television show!” Its cast of highly respectable thespians gives some of the strangest, blandest, and campiest performances of their careers. It overloads viewers with mysteries, only half of which are explained in full. Much like Ryan Murphy and Brad Falchuk’s Nip/Tuck, nearly every socio-sexual taboo is exploited, cloaked beneath layers of blatant horror cinema influences.
