CHUUUU PLEASE REACT TO THIS WHEN YOU CAN

[@m.worthy]

Mia Goth was adorable in *'EMMA'* : kzbin.info/www/bejne/f4O1loiCma2UrK8

[@SonicNurse666]

The final shot of Pearl smiling and crying while credits roll was fucking insane. I don’t even know how she did that

[@nrey3904]

That was SO GOOD

[@Roseforthethorns]

It made my skin crawl- damn, that drove home the entire film and Pearl’s whole arc for me.

[@beardpandaa]

That was soooo unsettling. I found myself going oof I should leave...

Thanks for spoiling it.

[@jinkkxx]

[@ivxnls]

THE NINE MINUTE MONOLOGUE!!!?? Not even gonna lie I cried through it. Pearl’s emotions about wanting to be loved, really hit the nail on the head for how I feel sometimes. So powerful.

[@iprobablyhateyou8426]

THOSE WERE NINE MINUTES!? It felt like two, I ate that whole scene up, couldn't even blink.

[@Con_blue]

I am socked it was 9 minutes. It went so quickly.

[@Mysteriuminiquitatis1998]

I feel so bad that I related to that monologue in a lot of ways lol (other than the murder and cheating bit lmao)

@@Mysteriuminiquitatis1998 saaaame dude, i watched this while in a depressive episode and i could not relate more i cried and cried even harder when i realized my feelings are only being validated by a literal murderer lmaoooo

[@davidfl4]

“I’m not really a good person,” I remember when she said that, I wondered do we all feel this way deep down? It was great!

[@mollywantshugs5944]

I generally like when villains in movies are humanized as long as doing so doesn’t compromise the villain’s status as a villain (ie; don’t try to justify their actions, just make them feel like a person instead of a caricature)

[@PossessedbyHorror]

yes I agree! I think Pearl keeps a great balance

[@Geshtafshnifka]

Cue:Dexter

[@Ragdollchick-gl8sx]

The Devils Rejects made you have feelings for a family of deranged serial killers esp. toward the ending of the movie. I cried during Freebird playing on the radio as they went on together towards death. Still an amazing film showing villainy and human emotion together. Great Review! I also enjoyed this ! Been a fan of Ty since Abc’s of death and onto Vhs. The Innkeepers omg brilliant piece like a 70s artsy piece about youth coming of age film like japanese crazy film from 77 House.

[@MasonDixie]

I can’t believe you didn’t mention that iconic FINAL SHOT for the end credit sequence. By far the most brilliant and disturbing final shot in a horror movie I ever seen. That scene alone is Oscar worthy from Mia Goth. Absolutely staggering.

[@tragicdeyz2641]

You are soooooo right. That was as good as anything in the movie.

[@heated8122]

Did you know that ending was unplanned? It wasn’t in the script! Ti West said, “That was just a random experimental idea that I was like, ‘Let’s try this, see what happens.’ Then she did that, and after watching it for three minutes, I said, “Cut. That’s great. We’re going to put that in the movie, and let’s go back to work now.’

[@jessemelgoza6174]

Pearl topped X and Barbarian for me and this is coming from someone who loves your typical slasher films. I just love character driven films especially when taking placed in the early 1900s. Pearl is Mia Goth’s film and she deserves all the praises she’s getting. Pearl is in my top 5 favorite horror films of the year. I give it a 4.8/5

Glad to see Ti West finally getting a bit more recognition. He was one of the directors who kicked off the horror revival in the early 2010's with The House of the Devil and The Innkeepers but for some reason people kind of forgot about him. He's a first rate director. He also films right here in Connecticut. I got to see the Yankee Peddler Inn up close.

[@thefailbender]

I didn’t know any of these were filmed in CT! That’s super cool, really weird to think of my state in any movie at all.

[@xs0ftx3]

This is the review I was waiting for!! Pearl was sososo good. I love how Ti West can transport his viewers to different time periods. He did that so well in House of the Devil and Pearl.

[@Ghostface1998]

I truly wonder what exactly the plot of Maxxxine will be cause in a article it said it’ll be about how homemade movies have affected people or something along those lines. Like will it still have slasher elements like X and Pearl cause the antagonist Pearl is dead so unless Maxine becomes the killer I have no idea Wtf is gonna happen💀

[@xs0ftx3]

@@Ghostface1998 maybe Maxine got a taste for blood lol

[@Ghostface1998]

@@xs0ftx3 like the way Pearl said at the end of X “You’re gonna end up just like me” and “It’ll all be taken from you”. So if Maxine truly ends up the way Pearl did then yup it’ll be a tale of two souls growing up in different eras but ending up the same.

[@waitahawhat]

My boyfriend and I went to see this last night, and when Pearl had her monologue we looked at one another like, "holy.... shit....." It's a 10/10 for both of us. So much fun to watch.

[@tyfraserweeks9216]

The monologue at the end was epic. It was also kind of hilarious considering the context. The scene that followed was probably the scariest part of the movie. I think villain origin stories don't work if they only kill off unlikable characters.

[@Ghostface1998]

I absolutely loved this movie now I don’t think it was as good as X for me personally cause it had more horror and gore but that’s really the only nitpick for Pearl. Mia Goff truly turned it out like I thought she was good in X but she was amazing in Pearl that 5 min monologue was fantastic it felt like that Toni C scene from that Hereditary dinner scene rant . The fact we got two amazing horror prequels with orphan first kill and Pearl. I’m hoping TI west can wrap up this trilogy nicely with Maxxxine. This felt like if wizard of oz went into the horror genre cause it was a period piece fs.

[@millmr20]

Yeah I got wizard of oz vibes mixed with psycho if psycho had a lead up to how Norman got messed up

[@justintalley6207]

That monologue was SOOOO long but I was in love with every second of it. The acting and the context cannot be replicated!

not sure where you are from, im from eastern europe and live in london currently. As far as i know x didnt even get a theatrical release in either of those i fear pearl is gonna be the same which is so stupid in my opnion.

Mia goth is an absolutely enchanting actress and I can’t wait to see more from her.

[@manda_musings8459]

I haven’t seen Mia Goth in anything but A Cure for Wellness (HIGHLY underrated btw) and Nymphomaniac. She legit seems kinda crazy to me so she seemingly can do these roles well 🤪

yes this!!

[@Whackadoo1]

Also why she liked Maxine, a cute, mousy brunette. She saw herself in her!

[@justafractionoftime1984]

@@Whackadoo1 someone pointed out how, when Howard first sees the crew, he keeps staring at Maxine. Wayne gets kind of defensive and alludes to the fact that he hasn’t seen anything beautiful like Maxine in years. But is he actually staring at her because she looks just like Pearl? (Yes, I know that it’s meta that Pearl and Maxine are both intentionally played by Mia Goth.) I’m just curious how deep that similarity goes. Do others see it or is it literally just a theatrical metaphor how they’re different characters but the same person?

She nailed Mia Goth's look perfectly

[@madeofmeats]

It’s insane how Pearl has skyrocketed to my number one spot in regards to favorite movies. Hereditary has officially been dethroned for me. Maxine and Pearl are two of the most captivating and unique horror characters I’ve seen in so long, they’ve become my favorite final girl and villain respectively. Needless to say, I loved Pearl more than X, even though I still really really loved X. Barbarian I’m still unsure on my feelings for it, I need to rewatch it. Gonna rewatch Pearl first though since my theater is bound to lose it first. Also needless to say, I can’t fucking wait for MaXXXine

[@ourladyofperpetualskepticism]

Yessssssssssss we are on the same page again! I *loved* Pearl! Mia Goth was amazing, and the supporting cast was also superb in how they played off her. I’m so hyped for Maxxxine. I think the through line of p*rnos through time is so interesting too. Ti West is showing his range with these movies with such exquisite attention to detail across different eras of filmmaking.

[@Johnny-ci8mw]

I’m going to Pearl on Tuesday. I think I might go see Barbarian again (for a third time) after Pearl. I should rewatch X before as well. Gosh it’s a good time to be a horror fan!

[@elusivegluejeff4980]

Sarah, thank you so much for your review of Pearl, great job.

[@TheKpopMailman]

I was also so surprised after seeing X that there wasn’t more sexual situations. Not because X had so much, just because Pearl was so sexual in X. But I’m honestly really happy that there wasn’t a lot, because it was more realistic. Pearl was finding herself, and that’s what this movie was about, so to have it in abundance I think would’ve been an mistake. Totally agree these movies are so independent of each other but also strengthen one another, which is a great feat to accomplish

[@beccabartlett6088]

I can’t wait to watch this!! Doesn’t make sense that they didn’t bring pearl out in the UK but they had X in the cinemas

Hands down my favorite movie of the year! Pearl as a character is just amazing and she is my joker. Mia goth is now becoming one of my favorites actors every. Im really curious as to what the horror elements will be in maXXXine tho

[@tragicdeyz2641]

"Pearl" is just outstanding. Even if you're not a horror geek it's just brilliant. I loved "X" but I think "Pearl" is quite a bit better. Some studio really needs to give Ti West a good story and buckets of money and let him run with it. Mia Goth, holy crap she just owns this role. It's truly an Oscar worthy performance but of course that won't happen. I don't think she exactly nailed her accent but not so much it was a problem.

I am so glad to see someone who has OCD watched this. I mean I'm sorry you have OCD as well and have to deal with it. But I've really been wanting to watch these but I'm so afraid of things sticking with me and then having intrusive thoughts later on about what I just watched.

i went to the TIFF premier for Pearl and it was so great. you can tell mia had a lot to do with building the character and a gave a ton of input on the film, which i added so much to the movie. the maxxxine teaser at the end was a huge surprise for the audience and from what tiwest hinted at it sounds so good!

[@eliasmochan]

I was not super hooked with X. I liked it, but I didn't get obsesed. I saw Pearl more like a curiosity. Turns out it is by far my favorite movie of the year. It's amazing.

Pearl was really good. I agree that I would have enjoyed it more without watching the trailer first

[@ClaudiaWowPaw]

Since I watched your ranking of A24 movies Ive made it my goal to watch them all. Just watched this one… and omg. Nothing will ever compare to the ring in horror (I think) but holy shit what an amazing movie. The acting is 10/10 . She deserves an Oscar and I hope she does. I’m so excited for Maxxxine

[@kawaiigargoylegirl]

i watched pearl first and then X, i think it made watching x way more enjoyable having seen pearl’s backstory. at the start of X i thought mia goths main character was still pearl somehow, but that she changed her name, found some way to stay young, or even that she had a daughter that looked her. but then slowly realizing that it was the old woman was actually pearl felt so satisfying! and seeing the first one i truly understood how pearl saw herself in maxine, and her motives in X. i think i would have just dismissed her as just another crazy old person if i hadn’t seen pearl first and i wouldn’t have appreciated the subtle nods to her old life.

[@zztanerzz]

[@ShaneA1994]

Watched pearl last night. Went in completely blind. I knew it was related to X and Maxxxine. But I read this was a prequel and that’s all I knew. I didn’t even watch a trailer and watched it on prime. I was so blown away by the movie halfway through I actually ordered a physical copy of the movie while watching it. I absolutely loved it. Gonna watch X next. But there’s no way it can top pearl. Because I just love how character driven it was.

[@wmstewart1179]

Pearl is already for digital pre-orders!!!

[@wterry2801]

There's no indication that Pearl ever killed again during the space of time between movies. Maybe she did but with her husband home it seemed she had went on to live a normal farm life.

[@justafractionoftime1984]

Idk I kinda disagree. Because her dialogue with Howard suggests that it’s kind of a regular thing. Between the car in the swamp, the (Mostly) naked guy in the cellar, and Howard telling her that he saved someone in the cellar for her (Lorraine)…the pure understanding between the two suggests that it’s not a one off kinda deal. It suggests that it’s a regular thing. Like, no one is safe once they get on that farm. Also, narratively speaking, Howard would have needed a long, long time adjusting to Pearl’s psychopathic/psychosexual needs, so I feel like this is definitely not the first time it’s happened because he seems relatively calm about the matter. Clearly the situation has reached a head because the catalyst is Howard not getting nasty with Pearl. But I definitely feel like this isn’t a new thing. That’s just my opinion though!!! Definitely up for other’s opinions!

[@mackelliotschaefer]

WARNING: SPOILERS! I watched X yesterday and Pearl today and loves both. I was a big fan of the oddly comforting Pearl moments in X. It definitely made me already endeared to the character. If I had watched them in reverse, I think I would have lost it when Pearl kills RJ in X and then starts dancing. I thought it was haunting the first time but now with so much background I need to see it again.

[@ynz3713]

I saw a comment on another video about pearl that Texas chainsaw massacre should do the same thing where they go back to the 1920’s-1930’s depression era and why/ how the family came to be cannibals and I completely agree

[@Equus21]

I thought PEARL was great. So unique and so colorful. A true throwback to 50s horror and Mia Goth slayed the role. However, I much prefer BARBARIAN. It's just more my type of plot and I like a lot of disturbing stuff in my horror. Both are must watches though.

[@wmstewart1179]

Love this movie!!!! One of the best horror films I've ever seen, X was amazing as well!!! Can't wait for MaXXXine!! I have to be at work at 4AM, and wake up at 2AM to get ready for work I actually stayed up late on Thursday night to see this movie when it opened and went to work tired the next day it was totally worth it!!!!!

[@marshalmallow7192]

I loved Pearl, but I do think X was better. I would like to have seen more development of her husband and what lead them to the events of X. However, still both fantastic movies and if pearl was a serial killer in the 80s shed be up there with Freddy and Jason

I didn't enjoy Pearl quite as much as X and definitely not as much as Barbarian, but I still thought it was a good movie. I'm looking forward to seeing MaXXXine, and I think the whole X trilogy will end up being a great series
