MaXXXine Review— The strongest entry in Ti West's X Trilogy?
Episode 3974
Saturday, 3 October, 2026

Joshua Hunter reviews MaXXXine, writer-director Ti West's blood-soaked conclusion to his X trilogy, starring Mia Goth as Maxine Minx, the sole survivor of X's massacre, now chasing stardom in a sleazy 1985 Hollywood. As Maxine finally gets her big break in the adult film industry, a mysterious killer known as the Night Stalker starts picking off aspiring starlets across the city — and Maxine's dark past threatens to catch up with her. Joshua breaks down whether this 1980s-set finale (backed by a stacked cast including Kevin Bacon, Elizabeth Debicki, and Halsey) sticks the landing after X and Pearl, and gives his honest verdict on whether Goth's trilogy-closing performance earns all the hype. 🍍 The Reel Pineapple is your one-stop shop for honest movie reviews, trailer breakdowns, and unfiltered film talk — no hype, no gatekeeping, just reel takes from someone who actually loves this stuff. 📺 Subscribe on YouTube: youtube.com/thereelpineapple 🦋 Follow on BlueSky: reelpineapple.bsky.social 🎥 Follow on TikTok & Instagram: @jhunterreelpineapple 🎬 Follow on Letterboxd: BlackShazam 🎮 Catch me live on Twitch: twitch.tv/thereelpineapple ⭐ Love the show?
