More Critic Reviews for American Horror Story Roanoke All Critics (15) | Top Critics (9) | Fresh (10) | Rotten (5) This is all very fun, but I'm actually more excited -- at least for now -- by the show's format. Sep 16, 2016 | Full Review… J. Bryan Lowder Slate Top Critic It's just another crappy true crime story, but with a few Oscar nominees and a much larger budget. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Brian Moylan Guardian Top Critic It's a unique and different approach for Murphy. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Mike Ayers Wall Street Journal Top Critic There's a return here to the slow-burn, old school horror which characterised the earlier seasons, making this episode fairly notable in how little it actually reveals. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Clarisse Loughrey Independent (UK) Top Critic After watching last night's episode, I'm still not sure whether this season can accomplish what earlier seasons of American Horror Story and this summer's Stranger Things did: spin all those embedded references into something engrossingly new. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Jen Chaney New York Magazine/Vulture Top Critic Indeed, the setting is Roanoke. But where this new season might go from there wasn't clear by the end of the season premiere, a pretty riveting piece of classic horror. Sep 14, 2016 | Full Review… Gail Pennington St. Louis Post-Dispatch Top Critic Despite its mockumentary format, this season of American Horror Story feels smaller and spookier than the last, like a campfire story read off a glowing smartphone that still manages to tap into our primitive fear: that of the great ghastly unknown. Sep 15, 2016 | Rating: 6/10 | Full Review… Isaac Feldberg We Got This Covered It's a safe bet this true-crime saga becomes something more campy and complex as it proceeds. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Ken Tucker Yahoo! TV Between the tensions among the trio and the potential resurrection of the documentary presentation, consider us teased and tempted back into the haunted house. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Inkoo Kang MTV Here it seems that Murphy and his writers believe they have found a solution to the over-stuffed, gleefully excessive seasons of the past; instead, they've merely found a different approach to heavy-handed storytelling. Jun 19, 2018 | Full Review… Britt Hayes ScreenCrush Unfortunately, the writers only use this historical story as a mechanism for creating ghosts to torment the modern-day dwellers, and don't really take the time to explore the time period and story with the depth it deserves. Oct 7, 2019 | Full Review… Matthew Brockmeyer Cultured Vultures Six years in, it's becoming increasingly unclear why American Horror Story still exists. Sep 15, 2016 | Full Review… Kaitlyn Tiffany The Verge View All Critic Reviews (15) Audience Reviews for American Horror Story: Roanoke Jan 18, 2020 This was awful. There was not one character that I found likable and I really didn't enjoy the format of talking heads. It was a real grind to get to the end (I watched out of habit). All filler, no killer - I will never re-watch this season. Debbie D Jan 05, 2020 Compared to all of the other seasons thus far, this is the worse, and the ending has left viewers puzzled and unsatisfied Daniel N Dec 24, 2019 The fact that they tried something so new goes a long way. The final few episodes weren't great, but this is one of the scarier seasons and for good reason. Joshua M Dec 11, 2019 This was truly the cheesiest most rotten season of AHS I've ever seen. Hated the documentary format. Seemed fake. Was hard to keep up with the characters. Dumb ending. Just altogether bad. Watched it simply because it's AHS and the series as a whole is brilliant. Ashley H Nov 30, 2019 The only reason I could make it through was seeing all the familiar faces. This is the scariest season of all. It's reason important in terms of the origins of the AHS, so just watch in during the day Britt R Nov 16, 2019 It's the best season since Asylum. It's pure horror and I love the documentary format. It was pure gold. Csar S Nov 15, 2019 after chapter 6 it became somewhat boring Nov 02, 2019 "Roanoke" scares, despairs, marvels and renews "American Horror Story" with a new format and a cast that we all want. Nahuel A Nov 01, 2019 Uma das melhores temporadas, pois fugiu totalmente do óbvio. Destaque para a atuação de Sarah Paulson e Kathy Bates. Felipe P Oct 23, 2019 A "spoof" on Travel Channel's My Haunted House, complete with based on, etc. and re-enactments with actors replacing real people. Throw in hemp figures from Blair Witch Project and you have a spoof. Only the former show ran an hour. You still have a bargain-rate big house, isolated in the country, and strange goings on. The man, usually, thinks his spouse is imagining things.
