Ray TaylorComment

In this episode of the Ray Taylor Movie Review Podcast, we dive into the 2022 American slasher film, "Pearl (subtitled An X-traordinary Origin Story)". Directed by Ti West and co-written by West and Mia Goth, the film stars David Corenswet, Tandi Wright, Matthew Sunderland, and Emma Jenkins-Purro. We explore the origin story of the title villain, Pearl, whose aspirations to become a movie star led her to commit violent acts on her family's Texas homestead during the 1918 influenza pandemic. Join us as we analyze the film's themes and motifs, performances, and overall impact.
