American Horror Story Season 5 Episode 3

This American Horror Story review contains spoilers… That short scene is sadly Evan Peters only scene in the episode.

After he leaves, the episode becomes nothing but melodrama and bad (some might say offensive) cliches.

If Mommy has an underlying message its that children will break their mothers heart.

Trust me I have three.

Speaking of Oedipal, Donovan dripping his blood into his mothers mouth was unsettling.

Of course, I always find Kathy Bates unsettling which happens when your parents let you watchMiserywhen youre nine.

Youre an immortal vampire, go promise Bill Gates eternal life in exchange for a billion dollars or something.

I dont know it just seems kind of silly in 2015 to play the gold digger card.

Unfortunately this wasnt enough to redeem what was easily the weakest episode yet this season.

Random thoughts during the episode:

Im still on the fence about Lady GaGas acting chops.

Last episode was better but in this one shes back to the lackluster performance she gave in the pilot.

I thought she was the other one, the Junkie Whore Sally?

Geez John, didnt even have to think about it did you.

Vampires can apparently get high if they drink blood with heroin in it….

I wonder if the countess ever feeds on a caffeine addict when shes feeling sluggish.

Sally to Iris before she agrees to kill her, Dont haunt my hallways bitch!

Right, because youre one to talk.
