I've always thought the scarecrow scene was Pearl tripping on the Morphine she drank!

[@PettyPumpkins]

That’s a great theory that we hadn’t really considered!!! Definitely would explain some things lol 😂

[@cupofcait]

Omg thats such a great point. She drank that stuff like it was nothing lol

[@RachelTheVlogger]

@@PettyPumpkinshave you reacted to the Maxxxine trailer yet?😊

[@Im_lil_kennedy]

You don’t necessarily trip out on morphine and opioids totally take away sexdrive while you’re on it, just from experience

[@horrormoviereactions]

My favorite line delivery in this movie is Pearl's mother saying, "When you fail- and you *will* fail-" and the rest doesn't matter. It's the certainty in her voice for me. It's like all of my self-struggles manifested into an actual voice. So chilling!

[@auntiecreeps1414]

Mitzy’s death always makes me cringe so hard because she handled the situation so badly. For instance when Pearl brought up Mitzy getting the part she should’ve said something like “Girl no! I was too scared to try out! Remember when I made you go ahead of me? I got up there and chickened out, then I went outside and heard you crying!” That would have put her back in Pearl’s corner instead of playing into her jealousy. Oh and that ending with the neverending smile? I had very recently seen the movie Smile maybe a few weeks before I saw Pearl. It was one of the few movies to make me feel scared. Anyway that final scene terrified me in a way it wasn’t even intended to. 😳🤣 Great reaction as always guys! 🤗🤗 Great film!

[@obehiikhigbonoaremen1241]

Period! And she could have comforted Pearl and told her she cares about her, if she didn't want to do the other obvious exit and instead leave while she was monologuing.

[@NickiTwix]

As soon as he saw the pig with maggots he should of “oh boy’d it” 🤣

[@NickiTwix]

Also the mum was giving Carries mum, “you will fail” reminded me of “they’re all going to laugh at you!” Although I think Pearls mum isn’t crazy like Mrs White but that moment reminded me of Carrie. Just got to the point in the video where you point out the Carrie vibes ! 🤣

[@itswessums]

Everyone drop your fav Mia line delivery! Mine: “but that was the best dancin I’ve ever done”

[@KdashDior]

“Aymmmmm Marriedddddd”

[@scare_duardo]

“I know ‘cause I feel things very deeply”

[@michiganjfrog366]

"Au revoir poor Johnny!!"

[@laticha402]

"I do love a good audience"

[@noahmunoz6697]

I love how they're deeply disturbed and still supporting our star Pearl

[@winterlove7758]

This one took me out!!! To see her slowly succumbing to her demons was chilling and honestly ✨iconic✨. IM A STAR

[@PettyPumpkins]

The arc she has from beginning to end is a masterclass in writing and acting!!

[@species47]

THIS MOVIE IS A STAR 🌟🪓🐊!!

[@PettyPumpkins]

The brightest! 💫

[@arminarlert1953]

Actually left me parched for the Projectionist. I would have wet dreams too like Pearl 😂 and would probably ride my pillow imagining the actor lmaor

[@NickiTwix]

I love the Wizard of Oz vibes in this. Might be a reach but the projectionist is scarecrow or the scarecrow is quite literally scarecrow and the projectionist is the wizard of Oz due to him being wise and giving advise. dad could be Tin man due to him being frozen and then the sister in law is cowardly lion 🤣 and Pearl gives Dorothy when she’s in the dungarees but then when she is in the red dress with the bike it’s like the Wicked Witch when she’s the neighbour riding over to Dorothy’s house

Happy 300th video! I'm so excited for your channel growth. This is one of my favorite movies of the 2020s so far! I know you are going to stan Pearl!

[@PettyPumpkins]

Thank you-that means so much! 🤗

[@marlainalindsey3279]

My girl Pearl ❤❤❤❤ let's gooooo!!!!!

[@PettyPumpkins]

We love our girl!! 🥹

[@obehiikhigbonoaremen1241]

Seeing as Howard is her brother Mitzy DEFINITELY would have said something. Like Pearl's confession freaked her out. Mitzy should have left while Pearl was monologuing cause that would've given her a head start for running!

[@kevinwalsh9704]

Pearl a modern classic! Need maxxxine here asap.

[@PettyPumpkins]

We’re desperate for it 😭

[@headed4thebottom]

Been waiting for this one! Thank you 😊❤

[@PettyPumpkins]

It’s finally her time to shine!!!!!

[@beantownbrandon302]

The projectionist is now our SUPERMAN 🦸‍♂️ 😍

[@chrisquinlan6527]

I wish a man would look at me the way Pearl looked st that scarecrow

[@mariellas7369]

Who brings a group of kids to this movie?! 😂 love y’all

[@carloscastanoangulo3702]

That movie theatre story is WILD!!!!! 😂

[@tanjabuchholz5314]

Pearls mom isn't trying to squash her dreams to be mean. Because the dad is disabled, the mom would be left to run the farm AND care for the dad alone if Pearl was gone. She NEEDS Pearl's help - there is no-one else - Pearl is her only family, they are immigrants from Germany. There's no one else. Why would she encourage her only child to leave under these circumstances? How would the mom survive? It's not fair, but their situation requires them to work hard and sacrifice. They have no choice

[@paulinekeown2472]

I did a Google search, and 8 cents in 1918 is $1.79 today lol Just FYI

[@PettyPumpkins]

Lololol 😂😂 we were a little off!

[@paulinekeown2472]

@@PettyPumpkins Hey, either way, it was a lot of money for them. Love your guys' reactions❤

[@jrome9825]

congrats on your guys 300th video🎉

Thank you!!!

[@ashleyhayyynes]

Congrats and happy 300! Love you both so much.

Mitzy runs like when you’re having a nightmare & you can only run at 2mph 😂

[@cupofcait]

I really liked X. But I *loved* Pearl. Love the old hollywood technicolor vibe they were going for and Pearl's such a fascinating character.

[@LeBimbo]

When yall told the theater story about watching a sex scene with unattended children I SCREAMED! I don't know how yall survived that, I would have simply PASSED AWAY from the cringe. 😭

[@PettyPumpkins]

We will never watch this movie the same way again 😂😩

[@unicornwithapen2045]

what an iconic landmark 300th video

[@kraZyiNhEr3]

So proud of y'all!!!!!!....best gay reaction channel on yt I'm telling you!. Consistency is 🗝️🗝️ and y'all are the actual definition I'll always come back and support like crazy🔥🔥

Congrats on # 300 video! Love you both and the channel ❤️ 💗

[@PettyPumpkins]

Thank you!!! We appreciate you! 🤗❤️

[@yaynayormeh]

The actress who plays Pearl's mother was the intimacy co-ordinator on X (She is also a respected actress in New Zealand). When Ti West and Mia Goth got permission from A24 to do a sequel to X they just asked her to stay around and appear in it. She agreed and started learning German.

[@PettyPumpkins]

Yes we actually discussed this in the video! She’s great ❤️

[@montanabrown2693]

I am so ready for Maxxxine to come out.

[@ShaunLJ94]

From what I’ve read Maxxxine should be coming out July 2024 🤞

[@PettyPumpkins]

We are PUMPED!! 🤭

[@NickiTwix]

I enjoyed X but I loved this way more. Mia Goth blew me away in this, that girls a star fr

[@silverkhaos4518]

This was a great movie but dear gods it broke me. Pearl going for her dreams and having it all just fall apart was a brutal punch in the gut due to my own personal experiences.

[@PettyPumpkins]

Even though everything in the movie is extremely heightened, the core of it is still very relatable and I think thats why so many people connect with this movie!

[@DarthLesbian]

I just cant feel any pity for her. Seems like a total sociopath/narcissist. Killed the goose for such a petty senseless reason. I’m cheering for it to all go wrong for her 😂

[@fkajackiebrown_]

mia goth, tho. the fact she didnt some sort of nomination for this is maddening, actually.

[@PettyPumpkins]

Exactly!!!! 😭😭 she WILL be avenged!

Yes! 🥵😋

[@janejane-tk3wx]

why did she not win an oscar?

[@1pknail]

The mother reminds me so much of the Mother Superior from "Silent Night, Deadly Night."

[@daltonmorgan5739]

It would be amazing to see you guys react to daredevil and the punisher series. I’d love to watch you guys watch it.

[@tanjabuchholz5314]

I think Pearl is a teenager here...

Hot Corn 🌽 Water 💦 There You Go 😂

[@HauntFreak13]

Pearl and X were my favorites of 2022. I can’t wait for Maxxxine. Also, if you both haven’t seen it, I’m throwing a vote in for the 1999 horror/dark comedy “Ravenous”. Don’t even watch trailers, it’s best blind.

[@jenniferpercy2806]

If you like the opening score and credits to Pearl, you should watch Far From Heaven. It’s soooo reminiscent to the opening of Pearl. It’s glorious 1950’s melodrama camp starring Julianne Moore & Dennis Quaid. Comparing/contrasting the stigma, taboo, discrimination of being gay vs being black in the 50’s. The costume, set design, and luscious overacting camp from the cast are mesmerizing.

[@user-jh1zg7ry3w]

the dad looks like already gone

[@kevinramos3302]

Can You Guys React To Wrong Turn From 2003

[@PettyPumpkins]

We have a few more things we’re trying to get through but the Wrong Turn franchise is on our list!!

[@georginadevonshire9556]

Wrong Turn is a classic. ​@@PettyPumpkins if you watch it you have to watch Buffy 😂

[@sfinn13]

50:27 I felt that was the moment Pearl decided she hated blondes

[@aranerem5569]

I like this movie

[@isaacspeyer1129]

No bc this is the best horror movie of the decade so far and I’m not kidding

m o t h e r is m o t h e r I n g again omg omg

[@kilo3580]

Wow, that movie theater story was crazy. Why the hell would two adults leave out of a room that their children reside in at the same time??? Especially a “room” that’s showcasing a RATED R MOVIE😒(did they HAVE to come??)

[@mandyb2245]

I love the score to this movie! It's breathtaking. I can easily see why some people like Pearl better than X. I love both. I don't like her mother at all. Being strict is understandable enough, but she never says anything nice to Pearl at all. All she ever does it bitch at her and punish her. I don't feel bad for her at all. I feel bad for the dad, though.

[@obehiikhigbonoaremen1241]

Especially since she knew Pearl was so off, she could have been strict, but let that girl know she loved her. Being treated harshly messed Pearl up even more. I don't blame the Mom for not knowing what to do about Pearl. They were immigrants, and it was the time period. But she could have been kinder.

[@twsarahh]

I didn't realize you were supposed to sympathize with pearl; I couldn't stand her 💀

[@PettyPumpkins]

That’s also very fair 😂

[@marciovelho747]

I LOVE X as a horror movie with all my heart, but Pearl is just... something else. This one is definitely for the gays!!

[@horrormoviereactions]

I just noticed that the scarecrow's downturned, open mouth resembles her father's. Ew. That may not be intentional, of course.

[@youyeedyourlasthaw]

Ngl ive been relating to pearl a lot lately

[@dougiekiing4650]

First

[@colly3333]

I enjoyed the movie, and the actress gave a great performance. But as the movie developed further I found Pearl to be annoying, entitled, weak, talentless, and insufferable.

[@shawnjohnson2837]

Yall need to stop with the rewatches its no fun if you've already seen the movie

[@PettyPumpkins]

We will continue to do what we please, thank you ❤️
