As a die-hard horror fan and avid gamer with a soft spot for psychological thrillers, I can hardly contain my excitement for the upcoming release of “Pearl” on Netflix. Having been captivated by Mia Goth’s chilling performances in Ti West’s X trilogy, I can confidently say that she has become one of the most intriguing and unnerving modern-day scream queens.
As an assistant gamer, I’m excited to share that starting next week, August 1, I’ll be able to watch the prequel Pearl, a spin-off from the X and MaXXXine series, on Netflix. The news was recently posted on their social media platform with an intriguing photo of the protagonist from Ti West’s prequel in the X trilogy. I can’t wait to dive deeper into the backstory of Mia Goth’s character from X, who previously terrorized the adult film crew that dared to shoot on their farm. So mark your calendars, fellow gamers! It’s going to be a thrilling ride.
Netflix announced that the popular show “Pearl” will be available on their platform starting August 1st. They made this announcement by sharing an iconic image of Goth’s awkwardly smiling face on their social media platforms. We can’t help but feel excited and agree with Netflix’s assessment of Pearl as a true star. Their message even includes a touch of Southern charm, saying “She’s a star, y’all! Pearls coming to Netflix August 1st.”
The movie takes us back in time, preceding the occurrences in X. The narrative focuses on Pearl, a determined Texas farm girl longing to enter the world of movies. However, her parents are reluctant, keeping her secluded from outside influences. With her husband, Howard, off fighting in World War I, Pearl feels abandoned and unsupported. But when she encounters a movie projectionist, her hidden talents and darker sides emerge: a botched audition, cruelty towards animals, and a climactic confrontation with her disapproving parents mark the beginning of Pearl’s transformation into an unexpected heroine with a charming smile and a deadly ax.
Mia Goth Is Already a Modern Scream Queen
Mia Goth shines in Ti West’s trilogy, drawing attention to both of them. Following her impressive dual role in “X” as Pearl and Maxine, her portrayal of Pearl stood out as a surprising enhancement of the character. Although it’s clear that we’re witnessing the birth of a psychopath, Goth adds an enigmatic, dreamlike quality to the character that keeps us guessing and on our toes. The discussion about horror being overlooked in award shows was unavoidable given Goth’s exceptional performance in 2022 – the best in the genre that year.
In “MaXXXine,” the character she plays is a reprisal of her “final girl” role from the initial film, but this time she takes center stage. The story unfolds in the chaotic Los Angeles of the 1980s, during the Night Stalker era. After securing a role in a new horror production, Maxine is compelled to reflect on her past in order to stay alive during the filming. With “MaXXXine,” she adds another horror feature to her impressive resume, having previously starred in films such as “Suspiria,” “High Life,” “Infinity Pool,” “A Cure for Wellness,” and “Marrowbone.”
Starting August 1, you can find “Pearl” streaming on Netflix, while “X” can be streamed on Kanopy. On August 13, look for “MaXXXine” to be available for digital viewing on Amazon Prime Video.
