Sharpen your Freddie Kruger gloves and strap on your hockey masks: American Horror Story: 1984 has scared up a premiere date.
Season 9 of the horror anthology will return to FX on Wednesday, Sept. 18, at 10/9c, the network announced Monday.
As previously reported, Ahs‘ latest incarnation seems like it will concern itself with 1980s slasher movie franchises like Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday The 13th. The season’s cast includes American Horror Story standby Emma Roberts — though we don’t yet know who she’ll play — but not Evan Peters, who recently made it clear he will “sit a season out.

A totally dumb, prequel. No, really it’s dumb, but enjoyable mayhem while it lasts.
Damn. The First Purge, the fourth film in The Purge franchise takes the annual night of government sanctioned murder back to its boneheaded roots in a blaxploitation battle royale that’s about as subtle as a sledgehammer. So, no change there. And up and coming director Gerard McMurray, hot off his Sundance Film Festival nominated drama Black Sands (2017) helms the horror juggernaut that bumps and grinds on the edges of Trumpian social warfare before going full hack and slash mode on the impoverished streets of New York’s Staten Island. A handful of urban stereotypes – find themselves fighting masked Nazis in the Park Tower projects. A pulpy allegory of a divided America in 2018, perhaps… The Purge has always been a sharp-eyed concept, no doubt. But one that seems to continually squander its potential albeit entertainingly so.
