Critics Consensus

A fresh spin on the classic slasher formula, X marks the spot where Ti West gets resoundingly back to his horror roots.

It's crass and ghastly, with an on-the-nose premise fit for the often- sensationalist slasher genre and the salacious X-rated cinema embedded in this story.

Geordie Gray

The Australian

The characters are fleshed-out and kooky — you’ll mourn when they meet their inevitable slaughter. And for a slasher, the acting is remarkably good: Jenna Ortega and Mia Goth in particular are scene-stealers.

X reanimates perennial fears of aging, older women, and one’s fading relevance.

Never have I walked out so pleased with a movie that also had me absolutely disgusted. A true horror gem.

A throwback to old school Video Nasties & B Rated horror movies. Ortega and Goth steal the show…. I left intrigued with what the prequel/sequel will be but A24 has another hit for indie films & I can’t stop thinking about the film

X felt like it was meandering without a purpose. And maybe that was the point–to enjoy the ride without being bogged down by a hefty plot. Those going to the theatre to see the nudity and gore of the horror movies of yesteryear will leave satisfied.
