TUESDAY
FILM
X (with MaXXXine Sneak Peek)
Indie horror ace Ti West (The Sacrament, The House of the Devil) returned in 2022 with a Southern-fried A24 slasher. Following a gang of youth cruising through rural Texas in the ’70s, X drew clear inspiration from The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, but still managed to craft a pretty fresh story centered around a psychopathic elderly villain. West made the best of it, quickly releasing the follow-up backstory Pearl and the to-be-released trilogy conclusion MaXXXine. Who’s the common denominator? Mia Goth, our 21st-century version of Shelley Duvall. She’ll star again in MaXXXine, and you can catch six minutes of footage from the upcoming film at this screening of X. LINDSAY COSTELLO
