American Horror Story: Checking In (2015)
Season 5, Episode 1
7/10
Strong start, but very very disturbing
25 February 2024
I haven't watched AHS in years. I suppose I gave up halfway through season 4. Now that I had a chance to watch AHS again I figured I wasn't in the mood to re-start season 4 or figure out where I left of. Because I love Lady Gaga and unlike anyone else says, I do think she's a good actress, I knew I had to watch season 5, as well as the whole hotel scene attracted me.

The first episode was strong, I guess I preferred the story around the detective more than anyone else, but what I did forget is that AHS is disturbed, very disturbed. The cameo Max Greenfield made and then well... that thing on top of him. That made my stomach turn. Not necessary for the storyline so far for me at all.

I hope the other episodes are a bit stronger storyline wise (although I must say a pretty strong start) but a 7-stars for the disturbing scenes that were a bit much for me at times.
