Yesterday night, after hearing about them some time ago and then
@Mr.Fox mentioning them, I decided to check out
X and
Pearl, both of which were directed by Ti West and released in 2022. I wasn't really sure what I thought of
X at first; there were some parts I liked and some parts that felt a bit off, but watching Pearl afterward ties things together and enhances
X. There are still some things that don't add up even still, but for what they are they're a cool pair of movies. I'll get to the third installment in the series, MaXXXine, at some point but not this month as I already scheduled out the rest of the month's viewing. Maybe next month?
Tonight, in acknowledgement of the super Hunter's Moon, I revisited a pair of werewolf movies: director John Landis's
An American Werewolf in London and director Joe Dante's
The Howling, both of which were released in 1981.
