Since 2011, FX has blown our minds providing us with one of the best television series to date, "American Horror Story." We have seen the creepy murder house, the crazy asylum, badass witches, freaky circus acts, an uninviting hotel, a TV show gone wrong, and now we are looking at an eerie side of politics.
On September 5th, FX premiered their seventh season of "American Horror Story: Cult." I think everyone’s reactions were about the same, which is WHAT THE F**K?
Of course, you can’t have an American Horror Story without the great Evan Peters and amazing Sarah Paulson. From the first episode, “Election Night,” you can already tell who sides with what political party.
Peters being an amped up Republican named Kai, and Paulson’s character being a worried liberal named Ally. Immediately after finding out Trump is the next president, things go south fast.
Kai has weird antics to covering his face in Cheetos and then convincing some crazy girl to become a nanny for Ally’s son. Do not hire anyone from Care.com named Winter because she will show your child the dark web and people stabbing each other.
Ally has these “visions” of people attacking her, specifically clowns. But are they really visions? (*Spooky music starts playing*).
She goes to a grocery store where she has a vision followed by a meltdown where she uses a bottle of Rosé as a weapon.
Ally is prescribed anti-anxiety medication to hopefully stop these awful "visions" she's seeing, and her wife is struggling to stay by her side because she thinks she is going completely insane.
There are many theories that seasons are colliding and are somehow connected in some way. Especially since our favorite killer clown Twisty has returned from season four, “Freak Show.”
One of the creators and producers of AHS, Ryan Murphy says, “The season will be representative of both sides of the political divide; however, it will be "illuminating and highlighting" groups of people Murphy believes to be "ignored by the current [Trump] administration and who are afraid and feel terrorized that their lives are going to be taken away."
We can already tell this is going to be a mind-boggling season.
