A fun trip back to 80's horror
This was a fun movie, with a mix of humor, cheesiness and horror all mixed. Ti West takes us back to the 80's with survivor of the X film, Maxine, trying to migrate from adult films to traditional ones. She lands a part in a horror film, but the event of her past are thrown back in her face. There's a serial killer on the loose and it seems like roads are leading to her.
While it's not perfect, it is entertaining all the way through with good pacing. Kevin Bacon particularly steals the show as a private eye working for the stalker. He's so over the top that you can't help but laugh. As the movie goes on, it almost feels like Tarantino takes over as it has its turns. For a third film in the franchise, it's decisively solid and may even be my favorite of the bunch.
