If you could pick a horror movie that is beyond terrifying I wonder what it would be wit this administration & the GOP. for me it is the sum total of every horror movie ever made.
For me it would be the Alien movies. The monster is the sum of all fears.

Can't find it on the YouTube but there was this SNL sketch, "Invasion of the Brain Snatchers" from 1980. Reagan's giving out pods as campaign tokens and suddenly all the cool people are pro-Ronnie...
I think about that sketch a lot these days.

They are more accurately represented by the nazis in Schindler's List.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ozymandias
Percy Shelley's "Ozymandias"
I met a traveller from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert... near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
'My name is Ozymandias, king of kings;
Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!'
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
