Summary With the release of MaXXXine, Ti West's X trilogy has come to a close, and here is every movie in the series ranked worst to best. Starting with X in 2022, Ti West's horror trilogy took viewers on a decades-spanning journey that explored the horrors and violence that could come about from desires to attain fame, with the story of Maxine Minx and Pearl having a lot of interesting parallels.
Director Ti West Release Date July 5, 2024 Writers Ti West Cast Mia Goth , Elizabeth Debicki , Moses Sumney , Michelle Monaghan , Bobby Cannavale , Lily Collins , Halsey , Giancarlo Esposito Runtime 103 Minutes Main Genre Horror Expand MaXXXine is the third and final film in Ti West's X trilogy, and out of the three films, it turned out to be the worst one.
The themes of desiring fame and religious oppression were present in both X and Pearl, and while MaXXXine makes these issues much more integral parts of its story than its predecessor, it seems to have much less to say. In the attempt to mimic the violence and style of the 1980s B-horror movies that MaXXXine is homaging, it loses the soul of what made the first two X movies great.
Director Ti West Release Date March 18, 2022 Studio A24 Distributor A24 Writers Ti West Cast Martin Henderson , Mia Goth , Jenna Ortega , Stephen Ure , Scott Mescudi , Brittany Snow , Owen Campbell Runtime 105 minutes Budget $1 million Expand Ti West's X was the first film in the X trilogy, and it is what kicked off the events that lead to the prequel film Pearl and the sequel film MaXXXine.
Like many other early slasher films that inspired X, X heavily focuses on themes of sexuality, especially that of its female characters. X is more blatant in its exploration of this topic than some other popular films that have tackled it, as the killers Howard and Pearl are textually punishing the adult film crew for their engagement in sex and the creation of pornographic films.
Director Ti West Release Date September 16, 2022 Studio A24 Distributor A24 Writers Ti West , Mia Goth Cast Mia Goth , David Corenswet , Tandi Wright , Matthew Sunderland , Emma Jenkins-Purro Runtime 102 minutes Budget $1 million Expand Of the three films in Ti West's X trilogy, the second film Pearl was the most controversial upon its initial release, but it has turned out to be the best of the three.
