X
Writer/Director: Ti West
Starring: Martin Henderson, Brittany Snow, Kid Cudi, Mia Goth, Owen Campbell, Jenna Ortega
Writer/director Ti West made a name for himself in the horror community with movies like The House of the Devil and The Innkeepers. He’s now back to his slasher roots with X. West intentionally takes a fairly simple horror premise and spins it out to a devilishly good time with X. It’s 1979 and a group of young filmmakers head out in a van to a farmhouse in rural Texas to make a porno called “The Farmer’s Daughters.” Martin Henderson plays Wayne, the producer with Kid Cudi and Brittany Snow as his leads, Jackson and Bobbi-Lynne, respectively. Mia Goth has two roles, one of which is Maxine, an up-and-coming starlet also appearing in the film. Rounding out the crew is director RJ (Owen Campbell) and his girlfriend Lorraine (Jenna Ortega). The low-budget endeavor should have been an easy shoot, but the real horrors come from filming in a rickety farmhouse owned by an elderly couple. Now available to rent OnDemand and will be available on 4K, Blu-Ray, and DVD May 24
