Mia Goth and Ti West are on a mission to convert horror skeptics with 'MaXXXine'

As he gears up to premiere “MaXXXine,” the final installment to the A24 horror trilogy, director Ti West said he and Mia Goth have yet to process what it means to come to the end of this project which has spanned nearly 5 years. The pair first joined forces with “X,” which was released in 2022, and shot the prequel, “Pearl,” immediately after they finished filming “X.” “MaXXXine” hits US theaters July 5.

It follows Maxine Minx , an adult film star trying to break into mainstream movies. She becomes increasingly concerned that her violent past will interfere with her plans for fame after she gets her big break with a role in a horror sequel, “The Puritan 2.”There’s a kind of irony to the religious extremism that permeates West’s trilogy, given his and Goth’s mission to convert nonbelievers to the genre’s appeal.

“I think, somewhat historically, for me, the people who like my movies the most are people that are on the fence about horror,” he said. “You can always close your eyes at the gruesome parts. And you can still enjoy this movie even if you think you don’t like horror movies.” “The thing about, say something like, ‘MaXXXine,’ is because it’s the 1980s, everything that’s in front of the camera has to get picked by me because it isn’t just there. You don’t just walk out and go, ‘This location works,’” West explained. “Every shot, every prop, every wardrobe, everything is now a conversation and decision about what would serve the movie. That to me is just a much more fulfilling way to approach things.
