I love how this season doesn’t rely on supernatural entities or beings just straight up real life. The clowns basically represent the clown sightings from 2016, and of course election and politics. This world is much more scary than any ghost or demon.
I'm watching over AHS at this point, and the problem with the season is that while it relies on real life, it's *too* topical. Everything major in this season is pulled from everything within a single year span, and watching over it makes it feel *incredibly* dated, and not in a charming way like a period piece.
@@davidk7439 yeah when i first watched the season in 2016, i thought it was cool because it really dealt with the BITE method of indoctrination, but rewatching the series in 2021, the whole thing felt boring and i was just waiting for the part where evan becomes marshall applewhite, david koresh and jim jones in the same episode. But everything else felt so incredibly dated from the cheetos masquera to paulson saying "i am a nasty woman".
Yeah and I even found this season much scarier than Roanoke or Hotel or Apocalypse because of how (some topics and matters) were true to life and could reflect on us people.
Y'all people don't get it, do you? The reason why they made the song using trumpets this season was to make it sound patriotic and American because, ya know, this season is about America... I love this opening sequence but I do feel they are hiding some things for the premiere.
The feel and tone of this theme intro reminded me of Freak Show. An inventive use of musicality and imagery to create suspense and fear. The trumpets and marching band were nice touches.
My theory behind why there aren't many names there: maybe each episode someone joins the cult, and their name will appear in the title sequence once they join?
Probably not, AHS was never the type of show to include or exclude names from the title sequence, especially considering the run time. If the new character joins the show or dies and doesn't appear anymore, their name would still appear despite not making an appearance
This is by far the best version of the opening song, I love the horns. This is also one of the scariest seasons closely followed by freak show, hotel, asylum, coven,and Murder house respectively. The only season I didn't really like obviously was Roanoke though I do like Cathy Bates
They did Adina Porter dirty again. She was in every episode in Roanoke but she was considered a "Supporting/Reoccurring" role. Now that she signed onto do another season she was still shafted to a supporting and didn't get an upgrade like how Angela Basset and Lily Rabe did, while newcomers like Billie Lourd and Allison Pill who never been on the show get their name on there? Gj Murphy, your favoritism is showing
I'm sure they'll give her credit eventually. I think she did great last season. I'm just upset that some of the main franchise cast isn't coming back; Kathy and Angella aren't coming back I believe
Cant wait to start watching this new season! cant wait to put together the puzzle pieces and understand the plot, character persona,crisis, resolutions, and themes.
Honestly, this season has been so thought provoking and interesting so far. I think this is definitely the first season to earn the right to be called an “American Horror Story” because the horror and themes are so much more relevant to current times than all the previous seasons COMBINED. Love this show, and this season is on its way to becoming my favorite.
I actually like the intro. It fits into a different style theme and focuses on what America could be made up of since it started. But I'm sad some cast members never made the titles like Emma Roberts..hopefully their might be more?
I'm really loving this intro! I think this season has a lot of disparate yet fun ideas being mixed together - cults, the election, hives, and clowns - it looks like this one's gonna be at the very least interesting!
Ok but the title isn't at the end. What if the last few cast members names and the actual title card have been cut because there are some very well-kept secrets about the cast. Because every season has had a "and ________" and most have had a "with _______" So who could it be? Lady Gaga? Jessica Lange?
There were rumors she might actually return. But I doubt they would be hiding her name because even if the rumors are true, it won't be a main role. But there is a rumor she filmed something in between A Star is Born and the Joanne World Tour
Whoever they are, they definitely aren't the ones that were confirmed already. I'm hoping maybe Dennis or Angela. Or someone so surprising that we have to wait until the premiere to see.
I have been watching this show since the beginning & it hasn't let me down yet.. I wholeheartedly believe that this season will have me on the edge of my seat! Thank you Sarah Paulson, Evan Peters & especially Ryan Murphy for making me a huge fan.. Hopefully they kill Lena Dunham's character within the first 2 episodes because I can do without her!
Allen Wanzer I don't have nothing to bitch about.. I just love the show since the beginning.. I just can do without Lena Dunham! This is my only gripe..
Last season was really good and honestly I thought the idea was fresh and TRULY scary. It felt real. The cast was strong and it SUCKED we didn't get an opening credit. This one is....interesting but it really is a bummer only 5 people are listed as regulars and it's not a strong group. Sarah and Evan better carry this whole season. Cheyenne is a good actor but we'll see. Francis and Mare Winningham are back which is awesome and God I hope Angela comes back for at least one episode. She could really lead this whole thing. Man I don't have high hopes for this season though.
Aries I do not like seeing dead dogs in my shows, it was bad enough I had my beloved dog die in my arms and yeah, I do not want to see a dead dog or any animal for that matter.
Did ANYONE like Freakshow or is it just me? My faves from best to worst are Coven, Murderhouse, Asylum, Freakshow, Hotel, Roanoke. I hope Cult is really good... 😌
Dolly Dagger I did. But the only thing I didn’t like was that I couldn’t feel bad for any of the characters. For some reason I didn’t have a favorite except for Jessica Lange but only her, not her character. The story line was ok.
i'm pretty sure this is just a first-edition intro. there are many spots, if timed right, where an actors name can be printed (0:30, 0:39, 0.43 and i'm sure more..) and i highly doubt the potential "final version" will read "AHS: Cult" at the end, but will read "American Horror Story: Cult".
jacob philippe Exactly. It looks more like a rough cut, what with the missing names and the rough editing. They probably released it just to please fans and let them know a title sequence will appear.
I think Cult is one of the best AHS seasons. The plot and setting was really good and I found it more uncomfortable to watch than past seasons. I think it’s because of the realism. All the other AHS seasons have some form of supernatural threat causing problems which add to the story. Cult doesn’t have that. All the threats in this season are caused by humans and it makes it realistic as this could happen in real life
I was very pleasantly surprised by this season. I thought it was gonna be a one-sided political commentary; but they did a really good job outlining the problems on all sides of the current political situation. I wouldn’t say this was my favorite season (that goes to Coven), but it was definitely in my top 3. Very good!
Am I the only one who really actually likes this sequence? The trumpet parts actually make it better imo.
cami their all important plot points in the show its not supposed to be scary
@@sN00p_ Yeah people think the show is just literally meant to be scary lol. It's got a deep story with many things going down
I love it.
I really liked it! For some reason the trumpets fit the feel of the season.
It's dope
TWO YEARS WITHOUT AN OPENING SEQUENCE IM SO READY
John Sexton Hotel had one!
Joe Rivera but Roanoke didn't. It's been 2 years since Hotel premiered.
Alex Albano yeah but there was still one in 2016 when Hotel ended
one year
That Kid Seth It's been two years since the last time we saw the opening sequence
I love how this season doesn’t rely on supernatural entities or beings just straight up real life. The clowns basically represent the clown sightings from 2016, and of course election and politics. This world is much more scary than any ghost or demon.
Similar concept with SAW. I consider the SAW series to be the most scariest because anyone can do it. You don’t need that much to replicate SAW.
I'm watching over AHS at this point, and the problem with the season is that while it relies on real life, it's *too* topical. Everything major in this season is pulled from everything within a single year span, and watching over it makes it feel *incredibly* dated, and not in a charming way like a period piece.
Fr dats why season 7 is one of ma favorites

The characters and the plot was overly predictable. It was snooze fest. Plus children ruin horror movies when done wrong.
@@WaroftheDonuts there was literally only one child in this season ? In hotel there was more children .
it was bad like roanoke hotel and apocalypse the 1984 saved literally ahs it was a good season anyways murderhouse and asylum supremacy
People hate it?
MY WIG IS LEVITATING YAAAASSSSS
David Jay 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Mine done fell off so be thankful
David Jay I'm fucking weak💀

It was fucking weird though
Literally the best season and the best opening, nothing can change my mind

Roman Natale we get it, it just doesn't sound good
I loved the violins in Hotel lol I thought I was the only one
trb4321 it sounds like they mixed ahs’ theme with the house of cards theme.
Am I the only one who likes the opening for the Freak Show lol, but I do like the sound of this one too.
@@katiemarie6567 OH THERE ARE ALOT OF PEOPLE WHO DO INCLUDING ME WHO LOVE THE FREAKSHOW INTRO
the donald trump mask scares the shit out of me.
While I do support trump the masks are pretty creepy
@@noahbrewer8654 same
Ok let’s not get political
@Craftalogicaljr I haven't seen a single difference since Trump was elected, he didn't destroy the world.
@Craftalogicaljr How did he destroyed the world if I see no difference?
I love the intro. I think it’s because the violins and trumpets. It’s catchy.
The instrument playing in the background makes this opening more creepy and the fact this season felt so realistic it actually scared me
It’s been forever and it’s still a bop 💀✋
Fr
The feel and tone of this theme intro reminded me of Freak Show. An inventive use of musicality and imagery to create suspense and fear. The trumpets and marching band were nice touches.
And so it all begins again
My theory behind why there aren't many names there: maybe each episode someone joins the cult, and their name will appear in the title sequence once they join?
Anna Fillingim THAT WOULD BE BRILLIANT !!!!!!
Shinguuji Korekiyo OMG IKR
Anna Fillingim That would be an *amazing* concept, but that probably isn't going to happen.
Interesting!!!!!
Probably not, AHS was never the type of show to include or exclude names from the title sequence, especially considering the run time. If the new character joins the show or dies and doesn't appear anymore, their name would still appear despite not making an appearance
The opening sequences of all of these shows are always much scarier than the shows themselves.
that’s so so true
Kyle Cooper the gost
fr I skip then I can’t barely watch it full😭
well this season actually scared the crp out of me
This season bore me to death ngl. The first few episodes were good kinda like purge vibes. But the plot was very disappointing.
This is by far the best version of the opening song, I love the horns. This is also one of the scariest seasons closely followed by freak show, hotel, asylum, coven,and Murder house respectively. The only season I didn't really like obviously was Roanoke though I do like Cathy Bates
Kathy Bates, one of the most best actress I know of.
The music is like if Star Wars and the old intro music had a baby
hannah dalayne 😂😂😂
Im wet at the sound of both sooooo
I thought it was a House of Cards reference with the political themes of this season.
Lol right
Sound more like a cue from Tim Burton's Batman to me.
-S.
One of the best seasons absolutely loved it
Yall are criticizing the opening, meanwhile I'm just happy there is an opening this time
They did Adina Porter dirty again. She was in every episode in Roanoke but she was considered a "Supporting/Reoccurring" role.

Maybe because she's reoccurring and not main.
This is as much as they can reveal
ViolatedPossesions I want Adina name in this too😭
this is literally one of the stupidest things to complain about. get over yourself. it doesn't fucking matter.

Yassssssssss!!! Crying 😭 can't wait! Love how they incorporated the presidential song in there

uhh this series is sooo loving its dark, horror, mystery ,thrilling I love it
love where the music goes all star spangled banner at 0:40. this seasons gonna piss a lot of people off haha
I never noticed it wow
The Trumpet Is Amazing ‼💯
LOVE IT!!!!!
MaryGirl Moody lmao it's incredible😭
I just love how different it is from the normal opening credits, yet, it's drastically different.
MaryGirl Moody glad seeing you here so early
MaryGirl Moody me too!!!
MARY!!! 😁😁😁😁
Cult 2.0 imcoming
This is probably the BEST ahs opening intro
The genius of this season is amazing
I love that it has that marching band sensation
I personally think it's perfect. I just think people are criticizing it more then it needs to be.
These opening title cards have always been freakier and scarier than the show itself.
I'm really loving this intro! I think this season has a lot of disparate yet fun ideas being mixed together - cults, the election, hives, and clowns - it looks like this one's gonna be at the very least interesting!
Where was Jake Paul in all of this. Where was the scary Jake Paul mask?
I see u Ryan Murphy 😂😂
Dae Hogan lmao

It's gonna be Lena Dunham
WD Vinco Ohhhhh! Well then that gives more room for different actors and characters to come in! How exciting!
last is always an a-list actor so lange or gaga (i hope!)

THIS IS GONNA BE SO GOOD!!!
1:01 Imo, I think that part is the best part about this intro.
I honestly don’t see why people dislike this season. Although it was very bloody, it was still fantastic
My second fav intro after 1984
I thought this season was the darkest one yet. It was really confusing but i still loved every minute of it.
Best part of the entire season.
watching this after the 2020 election results like: 👁👄👁
They were right for calling this season cult😭

Aries I do not like seeing dead dogs in my shows, it was bad enough I had my beloved dog die in my arms and yeah, I do not want to see a dead dog or any animal for that matter.
I like how you're pissed about a dead dog while there are a shit ton of humans dying in the show and you don't even blink an eye
Aries I think that the dead dog is probably a symbol of loyalty dying
How else would they get John Wick into the story?
Aries SERIOUSLY THAT'S WHAT I WAS THINKING
0:58 Edward Mordrake?
Kylie Nash wait omg
Kylie Nash the same green smoke is everywhere
No hair or face in the back.
This intro is my favorite out of all seasons because of how it sounds 😊😊😊
The freak show comeback we've all been waiting for!
idk why but this is the only opening that makes me feel some typa way 😶
Did ANYONE like Freakshow or is it just me? My faves from best to worst are Coven, Murderhouse, Asylum, Freakshow, Hotel, Roanoke. I hope Cult is really good... 😌
Dolly Dagger i loved freakshow but murder house will always be my favorite
I honestly didn't care too much for Hotel or Roanoke much either
Asylum was the best season by far. My list is Coven, Hotel, Murder House, Roanoke, Freakshow, Asylum.
Dolly Dagger I did. But the only thing I didn’t like was that I couldn’t feel bad for any of the characters. For some reason I didn’t have a favorite except for Jessica Lange but only her, not her character. The story line was ok.
Coven is your favorite? Ouch
This is my favorite intro i dont really know why but it was just giving for me
I'm actually excited lol I can't wait!
Who else gets anxiety and fear of going to the fair alone at night watching this
I love this Intro!
seasons with the intro are always the best 😊
American Horror Story: House of Cards
Isaac Ruiz Ehhh I was skeptical too but at least the left and the right are getting shit on sooo
I had the same exact thought, haha.
Isaac Ruiz PLEASEEEEE
SUCHHHH a good season omg
this is the best intro i love the trumpet. hotel is second best tho 👀
Don't get me wrong I love American Horror Story but is it just me or does anyone else think the intros are scarier than the episodes LOL
Hurry up September 5th! So excited!!!!
I love the American horror story opening title sequences. One of the best parts!
Is it just me or does it seem like they cut out the beginning. It doesn't seem like the complete version in every way.
This is the perfect plot. "American" is literally in the title of the show and has basically had nothing to do with the show until now
It's getting closer to September, but not close enough.
0:00 " You'd think we'd make little... cherub children"
Rider This comment is everything. 😂😂😂
Well, this opening sequence looks promising. I just can't wait to see what this new season has to offer! 😆😆😆
American Horror Story is legendary and iconic i hope it never goes off TV
This I already one of my favorite opening out all 7 openings like seriously IM SO FUCKING READYYY
Best music I think. Creepiest into though was Asylum!
The best sounding opening so far !
My top 3 of 2017 were for sure IT, Cult Of Chucky and AHS Cult.
Nino Falletta it had clowns
Cult of chunky had a “cult”
AHS said both
0:25 yo that''s twisty at the back left if you slow down the video, you wills see him!
The trumpet parts are the best...
BEST OPENING MUSIC IDC THIS SLAPS

jacob philippe Exactly. It looks more like a rough cut, what with the missing names and the rough editing. They probably released it just to please fans and let them know a title sequence will appear.
this didnt age well
Holy crap. This might be the scariest opening sequence yet.
I think Cult is one of the best AHS seasons. The plot and setting was really good and I found it more uncomfortable to watch than past seasons. I think it’s because of the realism.

Best season ever i love American horror story cult theme song 😀😀😀😀😀
The nostalgia is hitting me hard rn
Underrated season
I loved cult it needs a sequel
I can’t wait for this to come in Netflix
Gets me more pumped, that was terrifying.

The best season and intro by far
Trump is my god❤
