Looks incredible. Very 80’s Abel Ferrera feel. Also De Palma of course. West knows his s***.
Pearl is wayyyy better than X imo , but X was still a dope watch
Other way around for me
You gotta be blind to say this bb boy
just my opinion. It was an impressive movie. Def deserves credit for that. Felt like I was watching too much of a homage like House of the Devil whereas Pearl goes beyond the homage into truly psychologically damaging territory.

I prefer the psychological approach that Pearl went for rather than the grimy slasher feel of X
But I’ve always preferred psychological horror over slasher films

Pearl and Hereditary have to be the most f***ed up movies A24 ever put out

This is how I feel as well. X is also definitely a homage to Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Pearl is way too self important feeling for me compared to X. I appreciated seeing a grimy genre film played straight. It’s been 30 years of ironic subversions and remakes. Getting to see something that nailed the base level assignment of “blood and b****” while still being made with craft and having a bit more to say—felt like a miracle when I first saw it. Pearl was closer to the sensibility of most A24 horror while X was a refreshingly indulgent exploitation movie. All of West’s work is arguably pastiche, but X really understood the material it was pulling from. I also just found Mia Goth to be doing “too much” in Pearl.

Yea Hereditary is my top 1 A24 film. Probably the only horror movie that genuinely unnerves me and gets under my skin every time I watch it
It’s one my favorite horror films ever but I’ve only seen it like 2-3 times because of how much it f***s with me lmaooo

Did you see Infinity Pool?
Did you see Infinity Pool?
I haven’t. I definitely wanted to watch it, but then I saw that there were trypophobia warnings for that movie 😬
And that’s one thing I can’t do, I just can’t deal with a lot of holes
