10. Season 7: “Cult” (2017)

Evan Peters as Kai Anderson.

Although “Cult” tried something new by setting itself up as a timely reaction to the 2016 election of Donald Trump, it didn’t live up to expectations at all.

While Evan Peters delivers a truly terrifying performance as incel cult leader Kai Anderson, the story ultimately meanders through a series of convoluted twists that don’t mesh well with the poor attempts at political satire. 

There are moments where it excels, like making the most of Ally’s (Sarah Paulson) clown phobia, but considering this was meant to be a cleverly satirical attack on Donald Trump, it doesn’t live up to that promise.
