Recap: American Horror Story Asylum S2 E2 – Tricks and Treats
This weeks episode starts up with Teresa still trying to find a way out of Briarcliff in the present while being chased by Bloodyface. She ends up back where Leo is and tries to get him to get up but Bloodyface is too close so she jumps in a closet and watches Leo get brutally killed.
Flash back to 1964 and its apparent at this point that the majority of the story is going to be set in this time. Wendy (Lana’s girlfriend) is still so upset that she basically got blackmailed into commiting Lana into Briarcliff. She decides to take a shower and gets a visit from Bloodyface. Say goodbye to Wendy.
Recap: American Horror Story Asylum S2 E1 – Welcome to Briarcliff
Let’s jump right in shall we?
This season starts out creepy right away with two lovers named Leo and Teresa (played by Adam Levine and Jenna Dewan-Tatum) walking up to an abandoned Briarcliff Asylum. Teresa loves the creep factor of the place and they decide to sneak inside to look around. After getting rather frisky they do more exploring and find a locked room with a slot in the door. Leo sticks his arm in there to inspect it more and gets his arm ripped clean off by someTHING on the other side of the door.
The Many Kills of Freddy Krueger
We all fear something and we all have nightmares. Growing up there was only one person I feared. Freddy Krueger. He stalked my dreams and my imagination almost daily. As I got much older I started to appreciate A Nightmare on Elm Street a bit more (especially the first one) and see the way he killed his victims in a different way. Yes it was gruesome but there was a twisted yet sense-of-humor filled way of doing it. Whether it was Freddy pulling someone into a bed, pulling them around like a puppet or morphing out of the TV and using the most memorable line “Welcome to Prime-time bitch!” it always ended with some sort of punchline. When a new Nightmare movie came out I always wondered “How is Freddy going to kill these people this time?”. As the franchise went on it became more comedic until 1994 when Wes Craven came back to the series he started and made Freddy scary again. Nine years later Freddy made his way back on to the screen in the fanboy battle film Freddy vs Jason. After that it was apparent that Mr. Krueger had made a comeback in 2010 a remake of the original Nightmare on Elm Street was released although without the involvement of longtime Freddy actor Robert Englund. As long as people have nightmares it’s be safe to say that Freddy will always be right around the corner.
Below is a pretty cool video I came across that complies pretty much every kill in the Nightmare series.
