I will not accept a life I do not deserve. Join PJ and Derek as they head to a secluded Texas farmhouse hoping to make their dreams of fame and fortune a reality with Ti West’s X (2022). In this episode the guys open a love letter to '70s grindhouse cinema that mixes old-school slasher thrills with a surprisingly sharp exploration of sex, aging, beauty, and the fear of becoming irrelevant. Mia Goth's incredible dual performance, unforgettable kills, unsettling atmosphere, and the film's clever commentary on desire and the passage of time prove it is possible to make a good dirty movie. 📺Check out Jon Keogh’s edit of The X Factor, which combines all three of Ti West’s films into one intertwined epic, along with his other work on Vimeo.Join us on Third Channel Patreon to support the show and gain access to bonus content!Follow us @thirdchannelpodcast on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, & YouTube and @thirdchannelpod on Bluesky, Twitter, & Letterboxd.
