I am a big AHS fan and season 1 is my favorite. I've always thought there would be a great two hour movie in there focused on the Harmons. It kinda reminds me of the difference between the two mediums. TV is great because we can dig into all of the characters more and learn about everybody in the house, but film can be great because you get a more focused narrative. Anyway, that's a roundabout way of saying that this edit isn't intended to replace the season (for me, at least) but rather provide a condensed, alternate viewing experience. This edit is focused on the Harmon family as well as Nora and Charles Montgomery.
ORIGINAL RUNTIME: 534 MINUTES
NEW RUNTIME: 97 MINUTES
Synopsis: This edit turns American Horror Story season 1 into a movie about the Harmon family.
Intention: I thought the season was very strong and would make a really fun condensed narrative. It is very stylishly shot so I thought it lent itself to the format.
I can't provide a complete cutlist but here are the majorish plotlines and threads cut out or altered:
