Narrative
In 1979, a group of young filmmakers decide to make an adult film on a rural Texas farm, but when their elderly, reclusive hosts catch them in the act, the crew finds themselves fighting for their lives. The day after X (2022) premiered at South by Southwest, writer/director Ti West revealed that during a mandatory two-week COVID-19 quarantine at his New Zealand hotel before production on this film could begin, he wrote a prequel, Pearl (2022). A24 saw the script and greenlit the film before production on “X” had even wrapped. He asked star Mia Goth if she wanted to stay in New Zealand and film “Pearl,” and she readily agreed.

I knew it was a horror movie and that was it
Act Naturally Performed by Loretta Lynn Written by Vonie Morrison, Johnny Russell Courtesy of Geffen Records under license from Universal Music Enterprises. I had no expectations or knowledge of this movie when I turned this on. Watching it, I could feel the love the creators had for the old era of horror movies, the era of slashers and all the things that Scream dissected and downplayed, an era of horror movie rules where you expect sex to equal death and the final girl to overcome all odds and face the horrific entity that terrorizes them. The idea of this movie sounds like something I should have really liked.
It was good
The reality was more disappointing. I never connected with the characters, so when things started going wrong, I had no investment in their existence. They were just red shirts in a horror movie. I expected them to die and most of them lived up to that expectation.

It never really tipped the scales toward love, never toward hate, it remained in the realm of quiet acceptance of what was happening, a positive tolerance that never quite reached proper enjoyment. A24 has produced some of the most memorable horror films of the 21st century.
