Will you look at drive-in movies the same again?
American Horror Stories Season 1 Episode 3 had a decent concept and scares, but the plot was too rushed to take seriously.
The idea of a movie turning people into merciless killers is spooky, and all, but the 40-minute made the episode feel empty beyond the horror.
Ryan Murphy and his team have long teased that American Horror Stories will feature tales with a beginning, middle, and end, and three episodes in, it's clear the format is simply not working.
Being a streaming show should give the series more leeway when it comes to runtimes because had "Drive In" had another 20 minutes, it could have landed with more of a thud than a fizzle.
Rhenzy Feliz was decent as Chad. Ditto for Madison Bailey as Kelley, but did the show need to spend so much time on the subject of them having sex?...
