No One Ever Left Alive in 1985! Audio Film Review of ‘MaXXXine’
Rating: 3.5/5.0 |
CHICAGO – Patrick McDonald of HollywoodChicago.com audio film review for “MaXXXine,” the third film in writer/director Ti West’s overview of the 1970s/80s American Cinema porno film era, after “X” and “Pearl,” and featuring Mia Goth. In theaters since July 5th.
Maxine (Mia Goth) has made her way to Los Angeles after her survival from a horrific mass murder in 1979 Texas. As in Texas, she begins in L.A. as a porn actress, but is confident she can land a mainstream part in a horror franchise. Meanwhile LA LA Land is on alert as a series of “Night Stalker” murders are taking place, and two of Maxine’s closest friends are supposedly killed by the perpetrator. At the same time, a private investigator (Kevin Bacon) is about to confront Maxine with her past secrets. Can an actress make the reformation she feels she deserves?
