The first few episodes of 'Freak Show' have largely placed the lesser-known supporting characters on the periphery, perhaps to the show's detriment, as the Curiosities in Fraulein Elsa's Cabinet appear to offer much of interest. The ghastly Edward Mordrake gets it, as does Elsa, on some level; if only the people of Jupiter, Florida would give them a chance, they would see it -- how compelling and relatable they truly are. Every bit as deserving at a chance in the spotlight as Kathy Bates' Ethel or Sarah Paulson's Dot and Bette. "Edward Mordrake, Part 2" begins by giving at least a couple of them a chance to shine. It's not much, but it's a step in the right direction.
Where yesterday saw 'American Horror Story: Freak Show' inviting fans to step right up into a brand-new trailer and first peek at our killer clown, today's latest reveal from the FX horror-drama's fourth season proves no less freaky. Check out a circus-load of unsettling CG freaks and suitably haunting music in the full opening credits sequence from 'American Horror Story: Freak Show'!
A bit of advice: The faint of heart might want to avoid ‘American Horror Story,’ FX’s creepfest about a family of three that moves into a haunted house in Los Angeles from ‘Glee’ creator Ryan Murphy.
