So, when it premieres in October, the next installment (or miniseries, as Murphy and FX have taken to calling it), it will be known as American Horror Story: Asylum . Given the details that have been pouring in on the series, telling that the setting will be, in fact, an asylum, it's no surprise that they decided to take such a direct route. However, as Murphy is keen to point out, Asylum is not merely the description of the physical setting of season 2; it is also full of figurative goodness about loneliness and characters yearning for affect


Every Scream movie has seen the murders of some fairly famous celebrities before the opening credits. In the original, it was Drew Barrymore, cooking popcorn in her country home. In the sequel, it was Omar Epps and Jada Pinkett Smith at the movie theater, watching the diagetic film adaptation of the events of the original Scream - otherwise known as Stab.

The original Scream is that rare example of a horror movie that did everything right. Half-satire, half-thriller, it was both critically and financially successful—the series has made over half a billion dollars altogether—and spawned two underwhelming sequels plus a plethora of heinous knockoffs.

Backstory: Countless movies rely on character dialogue or subtitles to explain non-verbal and non-visual information to viewers. As a result, audiences rarely think twice when watching an actor receive (or send) a message through morse code - accepting that any sound bites will match what characters are reporting onscr


The juxtaposition is especially creepy - since the pictures are from a happy Hawaiian-themed party that took place before the unfortunate events leading to the floundering of Icarus I.

Subliminal messaging isn't always about advertising. Some filmmakers use it to try and create a certain emotional effect in their audience, without them consciously knowing why they felt that way.
