¡°The novel virus has claimed almost 90,00,00 lives in the US, while over 40,000 have died in the UK. Highest death tolls in the COVID world. Half of those deaths preventable. REDRUM! REDRUM!! REDRUM!!¡± the actor captioned his artwork featuring Trump and Johnson as the ghost twins wearing powder blue dresses with a pink waistband.

The painting also reflects upon the horror caused by the poor response of the two leaders during the pandemic, using the famous dialogue ¡°Come play with us¡±, from the Stanley Kubrick-directed film.

In the film adaptation of the Stephen King novel, the spirit of a man who killed his wife and children takes over an aspiring writer vacationing with his family in the Colorado Rockies. While his young son is in a trance, the boy calls out redrum, which his mother soon discovers is the mirror image of murder.

Carrey has criticized Trump¡¯s handling of the COVID-19 outbreak in the past as well. In an earlier painting, he had the Grim Reaper or Death showing the middle finger to the US president.
