So I went to a friend's house last night to watch horror movies and since I'd never seen any of the movies in the X trilogy, we watched the first two.
The trailers really didn't do these movies justice. I thought they were going to be more gross, more shock value for the sake of shock value, more violent. All three were surprisingly restrained.
Strongly recommend giving them a shot. I can't really go into why without spoilers, so the first movie X isn't as violent or awful as a lot of slasher films and really is more about set up and some creepy pasta elements with the casting.
The second movie is not what I expected at all and more inspired by Wizard of Oz/old Hollywood vibes. It's the least violent and most psychological of the movies.
The third movie was also enjoyable and used a seedy 80s LA setting to set the mood. Its was the most vibes based movie but since I enjoyed the vibes it worked for me.
I'm sad there are no icons of Mia Goth from MaXXXine but also idk where I'd use such an icon set since I'm not sure she's a character that would really work in an RP game. It'd have to be a pretty different or horror focused game.
