In 1979, a group of young filmmakers set out to make an adult film in a rural Texas farm, but when their reclusive, elderly hosts catch them in the act, the crew find themselves fighting for their lives.

X Reviews
Chicago Sun-Times
Richard Roeper
This is an homage but also a strikingly original and cheerfully grotesque work, filled with dark humor, relatively complex subtext and gung-ho, all-in performances from the talented ensemble cast.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
"X" pays off by showing what happens when characters are more than just meat for the grinder - or, for that matter, those doing the grinding.
Associated Press
Jake Coyle
By fusing two types of films that have long been bedfellows -- slashers and pornography -- X makes for a gripping shotgun marriage of genres.
Entertainment Weekly
Joshua Rothkopf
Traipsing into danger is the essential playbook of horror, a path well-trodden. But the brutal, giddy-making X, written and directed by Ti West, makes that journey somehow feel both fresh and comfortingly familiar.
MovieFreak.com
Sara Michelle Fetters
X rips at the jugular with exuberant joy. This is old-school exploitation horror that isnt afraid to offend and doesnt care if the rough edges get sanded down.
Rolling Stone
David Fear
Bloody. Brutal. Grungier than a big-city back alley and more guts-strewn than a slaughterhouse. This is how you like your slasher-flick horror, and trust us when we say Ti West has your back.
Chicago Reader
Dmitry Samarov
West just wants to punish everyone involved in gory ways played for laughs.
The Atlantic
David Sims
X provides a map for how to do the classics right while still taking the formula somewhere original.
San Francisco Chronicle
Zaki Hasan
Theres enough satire baked into the premise, plus an effort to ground both the characters and the killings, that the film manages to weave some genuine audience investment in with all the jump scares.
New York Times
A.O. Scott
"X" is a clever and exuberant throwback to a less innocent time, when movies could be naughty, disreputable and idiosyncratic.
BuzzFeed News
Celia Mattison
X reanimates perennial fears of aging, older women, and one's fading relevance.
Deadline Hollywood Daily
Valerie Complex
I give West credit for having a vision and sticking to his own influences. He knows what he wants to do and how to execute it unapologetically.
AV Club
Todd Gilchrist
Wests latest exploits two familiar scenarios simultaneously while offering a rejoinder to the moralistic gender and sexual stereotypes that defined older horror scenarios.
New York Magazine/Vulture
Alison Willmore
Like most of West's films, X is not particularly ambitious in its psychology or storytelling. It's his technique that makes his work feel like it has one foot in the arthouse...
Los Angeles Times
Robert Abele
It would be a mistake to call "X" a misfire - in its artisanal, period textures and delight in old-school atmospherics, it's too well made. But it's better at teasing than following through.
Washington Post
Michael O'Sullivan
To anyone old enough to have lived through 1979 - and to harbor no nostalgia for the inartfulness of DIY porn and VHS slasher movies, "X" is less of a treat.
indieWire
Robert Daniels
While West isnt always operating on the same levels as his influences, his signature flair for tension through simmering slow-burn pacing remains unparalleled.
FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)
Tim Cogshell
This is really great, a throwback to those grindhouse films of the 1970s.
HuffPost
Candice Frederick
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.
Austin Chronicle
Jenny Nulf
The expectations for West's return to film were high, and luckily X brings this master of horror back with a bang.
