American Horror Story—Asylum Episode 6

This show can do no wrong.  It is just brilliant.  It is only half way through the season and I feel like it has handled so many brilliant stories in its small amount of time.

I thought this while watching the show: 'how are they going to continue the present day storyline?'  Adam Levine is dead, wife—doomed and the team of random bloody faces, can't possibly be the Bloody Face.
But they have done it, fabulously.  I love that 'a' Bloody Face—not 'the' Bloody Face—is continuing what Dr Thredson obviously started.  The voice of this new mysterious Bloody Face was that of none other then Dylan McDermott, from the first season. of AHS  I think the hush hush on what he would be doing this season has been perfect, as I did not see this coming at all.
The present day storyline is now the storyline that is drawing me in to the show the most.  Can't wait to see what happens.

But this present day story also raises a lot of questions.  Does Dr Thredson get caught?  As nothing is said in the present day that suggests the the mistaken Bloody Face, Kit, is ever set free and the real one, in turn, caught.  Is this new Bloody Face related to Dr Thredson—as it is set 48 years from when he was Bloody Face—Dylan McDermott could easily be his son? 

We will find out in due time.

This episode did not feature much of Kit or Grace,  or much stuff to with inside the asylum.  Most of it was backgrounds on the monsters of the series.  We learn that Dr Thredson hasa  mummy issue and thats why he skins women—who are all 33 years of age and the age of his mother when she left him.  We also learn that Monsignor Timothy Howard knows about what Dr Ardin has been doing in the asylum, but he didn't know how monstrous his experiements really are, until know.  I really thought that he would stand up against him, being a priest and all.  If he really was a man of God he would put a stop to Ardin's horrifying experiments, not save his own ass.

We get a bit of Mary Eunice's background—very typical background if you ask me.

Sister Jude is apparently leaving he asylum.  Hands up if you think this will actually happen?  I don't I think the creators wouldn't take her out of the asylum.  She will either stay, as Monsignor Howard will have a change of heart, or she will be a patient herself in the asylums walls.  I say this because she could easily be blamed for the Nazi hunters death as he claims a 'nun' attacked him.

Can't wait for next week and some answers!

American Horror Story—Asylum Episode 5

Spoiler Heavy Post

I knew it! I knew it!
Yes! Yes! Yes!

I love that Dr Thredson is Bloody Face!  This whole episode  it was stuck in my mind, why does he want Lana out so bad?  I think stated that he wants her to write his story, maybe that is all it is?  But I do see Lana not coming out of his alive.  Zachary Quinto plays such a good bad guy!  Did anyone else see this magnificent twist coming?


While I was watching this episode I kept looking at him and past memories of Syler (from Heroes) were appearing in my head.  Syler and Thredson, are one of a kind.


And poor Kit has confessed to killing his wife, that darn Thredson, he is a tricky bastard.  But smart!  I wonder if he ever was a psychologist.  My bet is that he killed the real Dr Thredson and his body will appear at some point before the season is finished.

In other not so much major asylum news, turns out that 'Anne Frank' was just a wannabe post-natal depressed housewife.  But she is correct about Ardin, as we learn from the photos up on her Nazi poster board.

And wow, Shelly is on the loose!  I found that scene to funny to watch just because  of the teachers reaction to the child screaming about a monster.  Turns out she was right!  I wonder where Shelly can go from here?  I don't think she will get too far.

A question popped up during this episode.  Why save Kit from sterilisation and not Grace?  Why does Jude do this?

Also speaking of Jude, what a frisky ferret.  She loves it.  But I still can't help but find her story lines boring, I prefer her romance with Howard and her combating with Ardin.



American Horror Story—Asylum Episode 4


In this episode we learn a little more about Grace—which I have been waiting for ever since the show started. She tells Kit that she was framed for the murder of her Father and Step Mother. But as the show goes on we learn that she actually killed her Father and Step Mother because of the abuse she was receiving. I found it a really hoot that the creators depicted her as an innocent girl and then showed that she actually is a crazy killer.

The whole Anne Frank aspect of this episode was fine—I don't know much about her but I do like how they incorporate famous names into their episodes. I enjoy the aspect of an alternative interpretation.

Ardin a nazi—would never have guessed ...

Kit second guessing his sanity was an interesting subplot, you would think that all of the people locked up in their would do that same. I still think he is innocent though, Bloody Face is still out there.

Speaking of Bloody Face, Dr Thredson is number 1 on my radar list as the serial killer. This is because of gross scene involving Lana, I don't think there is any psychologists out there that would make a patient do that. I get the feeling that there is more to him. Why does he want to get Lana out of the asylum so bad?

What the hell is going on with Shelly. I feel so sorry for the poor girl. Since that start I would have never thought that she would end up like this. Damn that Ardin! He is a sick fiend and I hope he gets his now that 'Anne Frank' has seen Shelly.

Another great episode!!




American Horror Story—Asylum Episode 3

*Sorry for late post I have been doing school work*

Oh my, wow!
What an ending this episode had.
I really really like Shelly and it is sad that Ardin had to cut half of her legs off.  I think this is just the beginning with Ardin and his weird behaviour.

Another thing that really intrigued me this episode was the interaction between Lana and Dr Thredson.  But it does make me question him and his motives.  I know he believes that Lana is not crazy but why would be go to her house to check up on her girlfriend?  I mean for all he knows Lana could be a whack job.  I just think its strange that he makes sure an effort for her.

I knew it! Sister Mary is being possessed by Satan.  It just made to much sense late episode that it was in fact Satan.  One thing I want to know about Sister Mary is why one earth was she helping Dr Ardin in the first place with his creatures?  I can understand why Satan would help hm, but why was she helping him before she was possessed?  I guess it might just be because of her weak personality and she might get persuaded easily. 

Is it just me or do other find Sister Jude a bit boring?  I like her character but I feel that I am finding her subplots and story's boring compared to the other action that is going on in the show.  What do you guys think?

Can't wait to see what happens in the next episode, it was left on such a high point!
