Season 8 opener: In the wake of the nuclear apocalypse, a select group survive in a sealed bunker. As tensions rise, the occupants question whether the real hell is outside, or locked in with them.
A new occupant arrives at the Outpost with alarming news, causing a domino effect of lust, betrayal, and self-destruction.
As Ms. Mead grapples with her identity, Michael reveals more of his. Meanwhile, Coco's ex rears his ugly head; and Venable crafts a plan to give the residents of Outpost 3 one magical night.
Three years before the bombs drop, Outpost Three houses the Hawthorne School for Exceptional Young Men. Its inhabitants, warlocks living in the shadow of Cordelia Goode's coven, place their hopes on a new, troubled apprentice: Michael Langdon.

Behold and Madison are sent on a mission to Murder House to uncover the truth about Michael Langdon's past. Although revelations about their next Supreme paint a bleak picture, there may be room to set some things right.
The witches recruit a clairvoyant to expose deceivers in their midst. Meanwhile, Cordelia looks to make a deal with another sort of devil; a test of Mallory's powers reveal more about the Supreme-elect; and covens unite to send Michael a fiery message.

One giant celebration of the series, one moment after the next giving me chills.
Even if the primary pleasures of Apocalypse turn out to be based in pure nostalgia, I'm okay with that - weirdly enough, I really missed loving this show.
This season's journey to old haunts mainly reminds me of long-ago higher heights.
Besides a satisfying resolution, part of the allure of this season lies in its connection to the prior series. [Full review in Spanish]
It's clear that AHS is running out of creative steam, having used up all of its twisted imagination
'American Horror Story: Apocalypse' is a gift to the show's long-time fans.
The humor kills, the cast is game, and Kathy Bates is absolutely slaying her neo-goth look.

Apr 19, 2021If you haven't dropped the show after the previous season then congrats, you're getting more of the same for this season so expect to watch trash, from ridiculous plot points to simple things that irritate me like venom being completely safe to eat they miss a lot of marks here.

Mar 22, 2021This season forgot that AHS is an anthology series, not a series with sequels. This season is extremely reliant on better seasons, namely Murder House and most especially Coven. The majority of the characters original to this season stink, and it doesn't actually explore the Apocalypse all that much and instead focuses on flashbacks and life inside the bunker. Did not deliver on the premise of an Apocalypse themed season, and the episodes featuring characters from previous seasons were nice, but were not necessary. Apocalypse made me want to watch Murder House or Coven instead. Overall this season is unable to stand on its own, and it is underwhelming in the little originality it has.

Mar 02, 2021Much better than Coven and Roanoke. Continues and fleshes out the Coven season, and has characters that are compelling and engaging. Story itself is much more cohesive and much less rambling than Coven. My only major issue is with how the characters Misty Day and Mallory are handled. It's as if the writers couldn't decide which one to concentrate on, and in the end, muddled them both. Major plot hole with Misty Day too, in that during the entire series, Cordelia kept stressing how important it was that everyone needed to fight together, then they just had her run off with Stevie Nicks. The only reason could have been because the writers had nothing to do with the character since they had decided Mallory was more important. But, in the end, if you can get past that, then it's pretty good.

Jan 14, 2021so good. perfect. the plot is literally just that cody fern is amazing. also very satanic though so if you're not always comfy with that i'd probably skip this season. it made me a little uncomfy sometimes but hey, that's what horror is all about, right? i just finished the entire season in one day though so let's hope this one doesn't give me nightmares like asylum did 😀🕺

Jan 03, 2021Apocalypse + robots + the antichrist + X-men / super heroes. I'm sorry, but this got out of hand and lost sight of it's "horror" aspect.

Dec 10, 2020American Horror Story: Apocalypse is an end time focussed series, focussed on tying some loose ends from previous seasons (Coven, Hotel, Murder House) together. Starting out with an apocalyptic setting, the season focusses on a the live of the financial upper class in a bunker, but soon starts explaining more about how the story came to be in the typical American Horror Story flashbacks. Through this, the plot takes shifts its focus to the character development of the mysterious stranger who was introduced in the bunker. Although the life in a post-apocalyptic setting, locked in a bunker by some mysterious organization with some more than arbitrary rules, would already offer a big set of opportunities for the plot, this sadly is not used as much as it could have been. However, American Horror Story veterans will have a fun time remeeting some older characters, who are inserted into this season quite well. All in all, the season has a broad scope and includes a variety of themes. The setting is chosen well, so that there is multitude of sceneries besides the bunker, preventing the visuals to become tedious. The development of the main character is shown in a believable and interesting way, even featuring some impressive and gory visuals. The finale is a bit of a let down, but still does not take away from the ambitious build up, making this one of the best American Horror Story seasons. I would recommend this season to people who enjoyed the season Coven, the movie Omen or Rosemaries Baby.

Nov 23, 2020I loved the season, but I feel it could have been better

Nov 14, 2020So glad that FX figured how boring and non-AHS apocalypse was going to be and decided to turn season 8 into AHS Coven II. Greatly appreciated. Good choice!
-
Oct 16, 2020This season should have been called AHS: Coven 2. Instead of investigating a new theme of horror, the season tied itself in knots to rewrite its own history. This knot ended in a nice tidy bow where a bunch of self righteous witches save the world and the villain is dead - NOT SCARY.
