‘American Horror Story: Cult’ Opening Credits Teases Creepy Trump, Clinton Masks
Audiences got more hints about how “American Horror Story: Cult” utilizes the 2016 presidential election on Monday when the show’s official Twitter account released the opening credits.
The sequence is in the same vein as previous ones — complete with the theme and shots of strange and vague imagery — but with one exception: the Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton masks.
Throughout the credits, two characters put on the masks. In one shot, a man puts on a Trump mask in front of a mirror and then looks at the camera. The shot is immediately followed by a brief glimpse of a George Washington figurine. Later, a Clinton mask flashes into shot.
