“American Horror Stories: Drive In,” the third episode of FX on Hulu’s “American Horror Story” spin-off anthology, is a loving tribute to horror cinema history. It’s packed full of references to classic movies and notable people and events, from William Castle’s “The Tingler” to the terrifying subliminal images in “The Exorcist,” and nostalgic for the experience of going to the drive-in theater –- even though things go very wrong at this particular drive-in.
