Oct 9, 2013 | Full Review… Willa Paskin Slate Top Critic If Coven can stay away from scary moments that carry a too-strong whiff of real human suffering and instead serve the chills with enjoyable snark, we'll fall under its spell. Oct 8, 2013 | Full Review… Tom Conroy Media Life Top Critic The formula works particularly well in this installment, thanks to uninhibited work by the big-name cast. Oct 9, 2013 | Full Review… Neil Genzlinger New York Times Top Critic Cult tries to hit close to home but ultimately misses the mark. Clearly, many are living in a true American horror story - why not give viewers an escape or offer real cultural critique instead of simply holding up a funhouse mirror? Oct 18, 2017 | Full Review… Jac Kern Cincinnati CityBeat But unlike the series' first two iterations, Murder House and Asylum, Coven has finally figured out a way to incorporate feminism convincingly into the DNA of American Horror Story. Aug 10, 2017 | Full Review… Alison Herman Flavorwire The hour packs in sex, sexual violence, violence-violence, some beautiful cinematography and a surprising amount of offhand humor in telling its story of a New Orleans finishing school for young witches. Oct 8, 2013 | Full Review… Dave Walker Times-Picayune Hey, I was won over (for at least a week) when, in the midst of a mother-daughter argument, Fiona tells Cordelia, "Don't make me drop a house on you." Oct 9, 2013 | Full Review… Scott D. Pierce Salt Lake Tribune There are aspects of Coven that are stylish and clever, and others that are just Carrie on steroids. The cast, of course, is tremendous. Oct 9, 2013 | Full Review… Ellen Gray Philadelphia Daily News The third installment in Ryan Murphy's American Horror Story dials back the frights for more confident storytelling. Oct 9, 2013 | Rating: B | Full Review… Mark A. Perigard Boston Herald Seeing [Jessica Lange and Angela Bassett] cat it out on screen in their various banters was something to live for. Jun 26, 2018 | Full Review… Cameron Ferguson Black Girl Nerds It's always hard to tell how any series will go, especially one as reliably twisty and turny as American Horror Story, but in its first hour at least, Coven offers a clear entertaining setup for a potentially strong season. Oct 9, 2013 | Full Review… Rob Owen Pittsburgh Post-Gazette View All Critic Reviews (35) Audience Reviews for American Horror Story: Coven Nov 22, 2019 Peak AHS, that is all. Abi S Nov 19, 2019 A powerhouse of great characters, acting, cinematography, and writing Colin W Nov 06, 2019 Kept me interested. Who wouldn't love a little mysterious witchery! I liked the way they worked the social issues into the plot but found the undertones of bestiality, incest and pedophilia disturbing. I guessed early on about who would end up being "The Supreme" and I was right. There were more than enough wrenches thrown into the plot to make me question my assumption. There were moments in the middle where I'd get distracted and have to rewind, but overall, this was a very interesting season! Ashley H Oct 28, 2019 My favorite season by far. Danny S Oct 25, 2019 I was entertained and excited all season, even with a teenage theme, it's great! Maria Eduarda E Oct 18, 2019 This season is wonderful, I love it a lot. Ghean W Oct 17, 2019 One of the worst season. Matheus C Oct 15, 2019 Phenomenal acting, excellent writing. Laura T Oct 06, 2019 This season is so stylish and Iconic. Fiona Goode is such a compelling character by Jessica Lange. This genre is far from Asylum and Murder House, it's a dark fantasy series. The first 3 season of AHS are the unholy Trinity, I swear to the Dark Lord. Jaede A Sep 29, 2019 Really enjoyed coven. I love shows that take risks and tell interesting stories even if they don't turn out the best. However AHS Coven was executed well and enjoyable throughout.
