Ti West makes a long-awaited return to horror with X, a brand new horror movie being distributed by the arthouse horror masters over at A24 (The Witch, Hereditary, Midsommar). Judging by the insane new trailer, below, we’re in for “one f**ked up horror picture!”
Here’s the brand new plot synopsis: “In 1979, a group of young filmmakers set out to make an adult film in rural Texas, but when their reclusive, elderly hosts catch them in the act, the cast soon find themselves in a desperate fight for their lives.”
While the Texas Chain Saw Massacre vibes seem obvious, the trailer teases a lot more than meets the eye here.
Brittany Snow (Prom Night) will star alongside Mia Goth (Suspiria), Scott Mescudi (Kid Cudi) (“Creepshow”), Martin Henderson (The Ring), Owen Campbell (Super Dark Times), Stephen Ure (Deathgasm), and Scream‘s Jenna Ortega in the A24-produced and financed project.
West has also directed episodes of “Scream”, “The Exorcist”, “Chambers” and “Them: Covenant”, not to mention The Roost, The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, and one of the segments in Bloody Disgusting’s very first V/H/S!
A24’s X releases on March 18, 2022.
