Pearl and Maxxxine

More slasher horror with Mia Goth.

Pearl

A prequel to X, this slasher focuses on the titular Pearl in her youth where she's just a lonely and more than slightly deranged farm girl who has big dreams. Props to the film style in getting that old timey style and colors right, and to Mia Goth who plays Pearl carries the whole thing. It does leave the killing stuff and gore till the end though, and since its a prequel there's no real tension to be found here. 

Maxxxine

This sequel to X follows Maxine, again played by Mia Goth, as she's continued her stint in the adult film industry and is now trying to move to main stream stuff during a period where a serial killer is hunting women just like her. The gore and killing is slightly better paced now but the overall story is the weakest of the three. Not recommended.
