 What's the thing that scares you the most? It is now official Donald Trump is the next president of the United States Ladies and gentlemen, my name is Matt Rogers and welcome to our trailer discussion for American Horror Story Cult Now, uh, this trailer dropped early this morning and uh, we've had a few teasers this week We actually had the opening titles drop yesterday, which is interesting to have the opening titles back I'm glad to see it for one There was a lot of comments saying that they've changed the theme song too much It's a bit too patriotic sounding rather than creepy But we obviously didn't have the intro last season. So it's nice to have it back now in the opening of the trailer here We saw it's obviously based on the election at least at first Because uh, Ryan Murphy mentioned in an interview Probably a few months ago now that it would have something to do with the election Not sure how heavily it would be influenced by it But but look at that intro it looks like it may be more heavily Influenced by than I thought and it's quite an overdramatic reaction to uh, Trump becoming president. That's for sure. But anyway, let's take a further look So we've got um, Sarah Paulson's character. They're talking to Sharon Jackson who's obviously her psychiatrist something like that He mentioned she has coolrophobia, which is fear of clowns And if you've watched any of the teasers, you'll see that there's a lot of clowns or hints at clowns For this cult season Now she mentions in the session that her coolrophobia has gotten worse since the election But maybe due to anxiety or something But I think these clowns are somewhat real because they're obviously pestering it We'll see later in the trailer that she starts getting she's either she starts seeing things or that she actually is seeing what's actually there Um in these clowns or this cult that it's appearing to be So she's in some sort of uh relationship with the woman there. She's got a kid buggy look of it As you saw there, no one seems to believe that uh, there are these clowns around I bet there's something real about them, but whether she's seeing things as well. Not too sure yet Now um, Evan Peters character and billy lord who's joining the cast is uh character She seems to be some sort of psychiatrist We'll see more of that in a second But uh her and Evan Peters are talking about what uh really troubles them and she says that children troubles them But then goes on in the next scene to be talking about children and uh comforting the children with clowns, which She then goes to tell them that not to tell her mother because obviously it's a clown Which as you can see there is twisty the clown from freak show, which is a nice little easter egg there We did have a hint on Ryan Murphy's instagram account that he would be doing some sort of Throwaway to freak show being twisty the clown and now we see it right here Now uh, Evan Peters is doing a voice over there saying if you can get people scared enough they can Basically make the world burn Uh, which means that he may be some sort of leader for the cult or at least some sort of authoritative figure Ordering these clowns around to for some reason recruit Sarah Paulson's character I'm not sure why they would want to because she doesn't seem like there's anything too special about her But they're obviously bothering her for a reason. Maybe there is something hidden Some special quality in her that they want Evan Peters is obviously trying to get her recruited to this cult would be my guess Um, but I guess we'll see And we see more uh clowns tormenting Sarah Paulson's character there her and her family by the look of it And uh, that's it for the trailer So I guess we'll find out more on september 5th when the first episode airs now the first episode is called election night So I have a funny feeling that it's all going to get started with the 2016 election in michigan as it says earlier in the trailer So i'm not much longer left to wait now I guess we're going to find out all of our Theories that we've been discussing for over a year now of what this season is going to be I for one am again glad that uh, it's sort of going back to their roots with american horror story Not sort of doing the reality show it was kind of nice to have rowan oak as it's sort of its own thing Trying something different trying something new but i'm glad they've come back to the normal formula here I guess we'll find out uh how it ranks when it airs on september 5th Now i'll be doing weekly reviews as the episodes come out so make sure you hit that subscribe button But thanks so much for hanging out if you had a good time then spank that like button And if you subscribe during this video then walk them aboard.
