Serial Killer: On “American Horror Story” by Phillip Maciak

“With smatterings of S&M, grotesque injuries, Kurt Cobain impersonations, several kinds of rape, several kinds of murder, dentists, abortionists, psychics, the Black Dahlia, the Pope, same-sex ghost adoption, and more masturbation than is normal even for a network that employs both Louis C.K. and Charlie Sheen, American Horror Story came out and left it all on the floor, often literally.”

Phil Maciak discusses American Horror Story and the anatomy of a modern series, at LARB.
