Happy Sunday, Christmas Fanatics! And Happy Last Day of June! 

 

Since we didn't get a chance to record a bonus Fourth of July episode this year, we're releasing an episode that was originally intended to drop on Patreon instead! (Hence the explicit tag for language!) Think of it as a special "Summerween" treat, as it's an episode that covers a movie that takes place in July, but it's a horror film as well! It's also timely given the fact that the movie "MaXXXine" is releasing later this week, and this is the first installment of that trilogy!

 

Anthony is joined by his friend, Cookie, to discuss the Ti West/A24 2022 film, "X"! This movie, which first introduced the world to Mia Goth's already iconic Maxine Minx, features a group of actors that set out to make an adult film in rural Texas under the noses of the reclusive hosts of the farm they're staying at. However, when the elderly couple catches their young guests in the act, the cast finds themselves in a desperate fight for their lives.

 

Listen as Anthony and Cookie dive deep into the plot of this modern horror classic, explore its themes of aging and lost opportunities, laugh over the absurdity of the plot, which features two eighty-year-old slashers the script tries to convince us are formidable, and much, much more! 

 

This is a really fun one, so give it a listen and stay tuned - for Anthony and Cookie have two more episodes coming quite soon as well: a discussion about the prequel to this film, "Pearl", and an episode about the upcoming sequel, "MaXXXine"! 

 

As always, thanks for your love and support, y'all! And keep an eye on your podcast feeds tomorrow morning for your regularly scheduled Christmas programming where Anthony, Julia, and Thom will be reviewing 2023's Netflix Original Movie, "Family Switch"! ❤️🎅🏻🎄🎁 🦌🦉⛄️🔔🚂 🤶🏻 🎀 ❄️
