It was, but, like, I didn't know how or why or when. And it kind of has a, you know, has a strong whiff of the '70s, of course, but, like, it has a seductive aroma all its own. There's a down and dirty kind of vibe to it. It's really artfully made, but it doesn't really have any, like, pretenses or aspirations to so-called elevated horror.

And this movie not only knows the references, but, like, can harness them and channels them through his own distinct, like, sensibilities. I had not seen any of West's previous films. RIVERS: And, like, they're just trying to just find success off the brand alone or find success off just knowing the references. RIVERS: There have been all these, like, recent just kind of, like, dead-on-arrival efforts in the horror genre lately, like the new "Halloween," the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movie, which we had talked about here before. Marc Rivers, I'm going to start with you. "X" came out in theaters in March, is now available to rent on demand. They have a complicated relationship (laughter), to say the least. Pearl is played by Mia Goth, in copious makeup, while Howard is played by Stephen Ure. Then there's the mysterious elderly couple at the film's center. But his girlfriend, Lorraine, played by Jenna Ortega, is skeptical. Their director, RJ, played by Owen Campbell, wants to elevate the art of adult filmmaking, kind of the way "X" wants to elevate the art of horror filmmaking. The crew that accompanies her includes her fellow actors Bobby-Lynne and Jackson, played by Brittany Snow and Scott Mescudi - that's the rapper Kid Cudi - and Maxine's slick producer boyfriend, Wayne, played by Martin Henderson. Set in 1979, "X" stars Mia Goth as Maxine Minx, an ambitious actress who plans to use porn as a springboard to the stardom she feels she deserves. But as directed by Ti West and shot by Eliot Rockett, "X" has an already stylish feel, as well as larger points to make about filmmaking, ageing, exploitation and sex. People die in spectacularly grisly fashion. They're set upon by a bloodthirsty villain or villains. They descend on a creepy and isolated space. You've got a mixed group of free-spirited libertines. THOMPSON: So "X" falls into a lot of traditional horror movie patterns. THOMPSON: I'm glad to have this little team back together, so.

And today we're talking about "X" on POP CULTURE HAPPY HOUR from NPR. But it's only a matter of time before things get stabby. In the terrific horror/thriller "X," a ragtag film crew sets up shop in a creepy, rural farmhouse where they plan to shoot a porno movie without attracting the attention of their elderly hosts.
