After much fanfare (aided by an inventive ad campaign featuring that
creepy spectacular "spirit" dressed in full-body latex), FX's
An American Horror Story debuted last night. The haunted house drama features an ensemble cast including
Dylan McDermott (The Practice), Connie Britton (
Friday Night Lights) and Oscar-winner
Jessica Lange (she can go ahead and accept her Emmy trophy now!). Full of spooky frights, spine-shivering special effects and great acting and spot-on writing/direction, it's already receiving the lion's share of great reviews. The claims that it is like nothing you've ever seen on television before were not over-stated. Watch out for upcoming special guest appearance from
Heroes star
Zachary Quinto. Definitely a show to keep watching. Grade:
A-
