American Horror Story Hotel: Review

Let me start off by saying I am a huge fan of horror movies and any kind of suspense series dealing with horror. So when I first started watching the series known as, American Horror Story, I was thrilled. I began watching from the second season on up until now the fifth season titled, American Horror Story Hotel.

This show this season includes some amazing actors such as Angela Basset and even one of my favorite spooky actors, Kathy Bates from the horror movie thriller, Misery.

However despite all the amazing actors featured this season, I am sadly dissapointed with the series.

I was glued to the screen when I first saw the previews of the show with gruesome looking creatures coming out of the hotel beds. I immediately thought to myself, "Wow, this season will be awesome",
However the season has turned out to be nothing more to me than "bloody porn".

To me the series has no storyline. Every other scene is merely sex and blood.
I understand the whole concept of, "sex sells", but honestly you still need an amazing storyline. I should have written this series.
If I had written this series it would have basically evolved around some creepy hotel where guests dissapear every time they check in. It would have had these gruesome creatures coming up through the mattresses and out of the walls to kill them and take them to some unknown place. Then there would have been some key characters to try to solve the dissapearance of the people and figure out a way to rid the hotel of all the lost souls residing there so the murders would stop.

I honestly thought that was how the story would go this fifth season of the series.

I am so dissapointed after having been a longterm fan of the show. If I wanted to watch porn, I would have purchased it. I was hoping for horror and suspense which I got none of. I have tried to grasp some interest in each episode but instead its nothing more than men having sex with men and women on women, which I am sure made those who are into that lifestyle excited.

I am not here to knock the work of the producers but I'm sure they could have did better than this bloody porn. I still have no clue on the whole point behind the series...its quite awkward to watch.
