The first trailer for Ti West's (The House of the Devil, The Innkeepers) X was released back in January, giving fans a long-awaited glimpse of some footage from the director's latest "f*cked up horror picture."
Now, Letterboxd has debuted some new promo stills featuring several of the movie's main players, including Jenna Ortega, who was recently put through the ringer in Paramount's Scream revival. It doesn't look like she's going to have a much better time of things in X!
The updated synopsis tells us that "a group of young filmmakers set out to make an adult film in rural Texas, but when their reclusive, elderly hosts catch them in the act, the cast soon find themselves in a desperate fight for their lives."
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre may seem like an obvious influence, but the trailer promises a few surprises, and possibly even a supernatural twist as a frighteningly formidable old dear sets about dispatching her houseguests in gruesome fashion.
Check out the new stills below.
At a secluded farmhouse in Texas, a film crew arrives to begin shooting an adult movie. Their hosts, a reclusive elderly couple, take a special interest in their young guests… As night falls the couple’s leering interest turns violent.
X also stars Brittany Snow (Prom Night), Mia Goth (Suspiria), Scott Mescudi (Creepshow), Martin Henderson (The Ring), Owen Campbell (Super Dark Times), and Stephen Ure (Deathgasm). The movie is set for release on March 18, 2022.
