Harry Gardner, his pregnant wife Doris, and their daughter Alma travel from New York City to Provincetown, Massachusetts, for a three-month trip. Doris and Alma go on a walk and are stalked by a pale man in a trenchcoat. Chief Burleson assures the Gardners that Provincetown is a safe place and that they were likely rushed by an opioid addict. One night, Harry goes out to a local bar named the Muse where he meets Belle Noir and Austin Sommers, a famous erotica novelist and a playwright, respectively. Harry is delighted to speak with the two about art and inspiration, as he is spending his time in Provincetown reworking a pilot. Harry returns home and the pale man attacks him. Harry kills the man in self-defense. The next day, the Gardners plan to leave Provincetown for good, but before they go, Harry receives a call from Austin promising him a "cure" for his writer's block. Austin gives Harry a plastic baggie of black pills, also named the Muse. Harry is hesitant to take them, but downs one in front of Alma after a phone call with his agent encouraging him to stay in Provincetown and finish the pilot.

The effects of the pill are immediate on Harry and he ravenously finishes the pilot in four hours. Harry's agent Ursula notifies him that his show has been bought by Netflix and Joaquin Phoenix wants to star in it for free. Soon after, Harry begins to develop a taste for blood and sucks on Doris's finger after she accidentally slices it open. Austin explains to him that the pill, which he has named The Muse, has the side effects of turning the "talentless" into monstrous pale creatures and creating a thirst for blood in people with talent so long as they keep taking it. A male prostitute named Mickey with dreams of screenwriting debates taking the Muse, but a woman nicknamed Tuberculosis Karen by other Provincetown locals desperately advises him against it. Despite Karen's pleas, Mickey takes one. Alma, wanting to master a difficult piece on the violin, takes a pill from Harry's baggie. Alma later cruelly belittles Doris, accusing her of wanting to leave Provincetown because she's jealous of her and Harry's talent.

Meanwhile, Belle and Austin discover Alma has taken the pill and threaten Harry at gunpoint. Belle orders Mickey to murder Ursula but instead he takes her to a meeting with the Chemist, the creator of the pills, to discuss wide-distribution of them. Later, the Chemist instructs Belle and Austin to kill Ursula, Mickey, Harry, Alma, and Doris for causing too much trouble. Harry discovers Alma has killed Chief Burleson and Ursula is aware of it.

He confronts the Chemist after losing all of his hair and she tells him he cannot handle the effects of the pill because he has no talent. After also being introduced to the pills by Mickey, Belle Noir writes and finishes a book in one night and then kills her husband. Two years later, Vlad has transformed into a monstrous pale creature. Belle watches Austin lip-sync in drag at the Muse and proceeds to offer him a pill. That night, they go to the house of a fellow drag queen, and slaughter all of them except one. The surviving drag queen goes into the woods and Vlad jumps from behind and kills her.

Meanwhile, Belle approaches Karen and orders her to steal the Gardner's baby. Horrified by a transformed Doris, Karen abandons her mission. She flees the Gardner's house and a horde of pale people corner her. Mickey appears and offers Karen an ultimatum; take a pill or be devoured by the pale people. Mickey leaves and the pale people swarm her until she takes a pill. The next day, Harry sets Doris free, letting her loose to roam Provincetown as a pale creature.

Development

[edit]

On August 3, 2018, the series was renewed for a 10th season, set to air in 2020.[11] On May 26, 2020, it was announced that season 10 would be pushed back to 2021 due to production being stalled as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic.[12] Following the interruption, series co-creator Ryan Murphy told in an interview with TheWrap that the delay could potentially change the season's theme, since his initial idea needed to be filmed during the warmer months of the year.[13] The following month, Murphy unveiled a promotional poster for the season via his Instagram account; the image features a wide-open mouth with razor-sharp teeth while a hand is tattooing "AHS 10" on the tongue.[14] The tenth season has received an estimated amount of $48 million in tax credits under the California Film Association's "Program 2.0" initiative.[15][a] On March 19, 2021, Murphy revealed the seasons's title to be Double Feature; it will encompass two different stories, "one by the sea, one by the sand."[16][17] Later, on Instagram, Murphy referred to "Double Feature" as "Two seasons for the fans airing in one calendar year[...] So double the viewing pleasure. One set by the sea (this cast has already been announced). A second by the sand (that cast announcement coming)."[18] On June 24, 2021, FX released the first promotional poster for the season, depicting a female humanoid creature french kissing an alien with a black pill resting on her tongue. On July 6, 2021, FX unveiled a promotional video, disclosing new footage from their upcoming slate of television. The promotional video unveiled footage of the characters portrayed by Sarah Paulson, Leslie Grossman, Lily Rabe, Finn Wittrock, Frances Conroy, and Evan Peters, respectively. On July 27, 2021, the first official teaser was released on social media, confirming the titles of the two parts as Red Tide and Death Valley, respectively.[19][20] Red Tide spanned over the first six episodes and Death Valley over the last four episodes.[1] On August 13, 2021, the official trailer for Red Tide was released.[21]

Casting

[edit]

I'm excited for him to be in my world because I think... I'm gonna want to do a lot of things with him if he wants to work, because I think he's fascinating and interesting, and I think he has a soul. There's both a lightness and a darkness with Macaulay Culkin that I'm attracted to.
—Murphy on Macaulay Culkin's casting[22]

In November 2019, Murphy announced that some cast members from the first three seasons may return for the upcoming tenth season, saying, "[T]he people who helped build this show into what it is, who believed in it from the beginning, have been contacted and are interested. So, if you look at the iconography of the first three seasons, you can figure who I've gone to and who might be coming back." He also said that the tenth season would be "about reuniting fan-favorite actors to come back."[23] Later that day, Paulson confirmed that she would be returning to the series for its 10th season in a lead role.[24] On February 26, 2020, Murphy published a video in his Instagram account revealing that Grossman, Peters, Rabe, Wittrock, along with Kathy Bates, Billie Lourd, Adina Porter, Angelica Ross, and series newcomer Macaulay Culkin were cast in the 10th season.[25] In a May 2020 interview with E! Online, Murphy revealed that Culkin accepted his role after Murphy told him the character's personality over the phone. He affirmed, "I told him he has crazy, erotic sex with Kathy Bates and does other things. And he paused and he goes, 'This sounds like the role I was born to play.' So, he signed up right then and there."[22] On November 18, 2020, Murphy announced the casting of Spencer Novich.[26] On February 5, 2021, Conroy was confirmed to return in season 10, replacing the role Bates was to play.[27] On March 20, 2021, Murphy confirmed via Instagram that former series regular Denis O'Hare would return for the first time since Roanoke.[28] On June 15, 2021, Neal McDonough joined the cast as a series regular.[29]

Filming

It was initially reported that production was scheduled to resume filming in October 2020;[30] however, Rabe confirmed to Digital Spy that filming for the season would start on December 2, 2020.[31] On July 20, 2021, it was reported that production had been temporarily halted due to a positive COVID-19 case and potential exposure to the illness. Filming resumed a week later and concluded on September 27, 2021.[32]

Reception

Critical response

[edit]

The review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes reports an 80% approval rating, based on 61 reviews for the season, with an average rating of 9.00/10. The site's critical consensus reads: "Though its second tale is still a mystery, the first half of Double Feature proves a spine-tingling good time with terrific performances."[34]

Liz Shannon Miller of Collider praised Double Feature for its concise and inventive storytelling, particularly complimenting the "Death Valley" segment as the most enjoyable part of the series. She highlighted the effectiveness of the split-season format, saying it allowed for a tighter, more focused narrative. Miller appreciated the fast pacing and the season's engaging alien conspiracy storyline, describing it as a fun and imaginative take on familiar themes. Despite some issues with the finale, she noted the season's bold nihilism and lauded its brevity for keeping it from overstaying its welcome.[35] Riley Runnells of The Post described Double Feature as one of the strongest seasons in the anthology series, said Finn Wittrock and Lily Rabe deliver strong performances, along with notable contributions from Evan Peters and Frances Conroy. She highlighted Sarah Paulson’s portrayal of Tuberculosis Karen as raw, unglamorous, and both heartbreaking and terrifying. Runnells also complimented the writing for its polish and originality, specifically appreciating the fresh take on the vampire plot and the cinematic production style that elevated the season.[36] Andy Swift of TVLine described Double Feature as a "return to form" for the long-running series, appreciating its chilling atmosphere and strong performances. He particularly highlighted Sarah Paulson's portrayal of Tuberculosis Karen as wonderfully disturbing and found Finn Wittrock and Lily Rabe to be standout performers. Swift also commended the premiere's fast-paced plot and unique approach to horror, noting that the mix of eccentric characters and suspenseful storyline made the two-part premiere especially engaging.[37]

Kayla Cobb of Decider noted that Double Feature might mark a return to the show's horrifying roots, praising its frightening creatures and the performances, particularly from Finn Wittrock, Lily Rabe, Evan Peters, and Frances Conroy. She also highlighted Macaulay Culkin's portrayal of Mickey, appreciating his unapologetically sexualized yet smug character. While Cobb found the pacing slower than typical for American Horror Story, she acknowledged it as an intentional choice to build suspense and recommended streaming it for both its horror elements and standout performances.[38] Matt Fowler of IGN described Double Feature as starting slowly with "Cape Fear," but gaining momentum significantly in "Pale." He complimented the series for its fresh take on vampire lore, incorporating a writer's block twist, and noted its effort to address previous pacing issues by presenting two distinct narratives. While Fowler found the opening episode lacking in excitement, he highlighted the engaging performances of Finn Wittrock, Lily Rabe, Evan Peters, and Frances Conroy within a familiar horror setup.[39] Ron Hogan of Den of Geek rated Double Feature three out of five stars and appreciated the unexpected convergence of the two storylines. He highlighted Paulson's performance and the portrayal of Mamie Eisenhower as a pivotal character in the alien plot. While acknowledging some rushed elements and unanswered questions, Hogan found the blend of horror and conspiracy theories enjoyable. However, he felt the ending was abrupt, leaving several storylines unresolved.[40]
