Starring Mia Goth, Kid Cudi and newly-minted scream queen Jenna Ortega, the Texas porn horror is a movie you won’t be forgetting anytime soon.
West gestures at wider existential themes in the movie but stops short of exploring or critiquing them meaningfully. Both roles are played by young actors in heavy prosthetics: Howard by Stephen Ure and Pearl by Mia Goth, the latter casting an attempt at cyclical profundity. At various points inPearl warns Maxine that her good looks will fade just as hers did, and in turn her later life will take a similarly dark path.
But since this fetishisation of youth drives Pearl, jealous and horny, to her violent ways, the film loops back around into making a demon of female sexuality. As David Crow writes for, the film’s final third “relies on shock value and gross out gags at the expense of withered makeup on Goth’s face and body,” which feels far more sad than scary, and doesn’t quite chime with its otherwise subversive ethos.
