What is Pearl about?

Pearl is a horror flick directed by Ti West from a screenplay co-written by West and Mia Goth. It’s a prequel to X, which was also directed, written, and produced by West. Additionally, it was co-produced by A24 and Little Lamb Productions.

Mia Goth reprises her role in the prequel as Pearl, but viewers get to see the titular villain’s origin story this time, which is set in 1918. While living on her family’s isolated farm, Pearl dreams of a life of stardom but is held back from pursuing her dreams because she has to take care of her sick father and obey her overbearing religious mother. This causes her to become resentful and filled with hate which ultimately leads her to become a vicious killer.

The rest of the talented cast consists of David Corenswet, Tandi Wright, Matthew Sunderland, Emma Jenkins-Purro, and Alistair Sewell.

If you're unable to watch Pearl, we recommend checking out these other good horror movies currently streaming on Netflix: Thanksgiving, Annabelle, Insidious: The Red Door, The Open House, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and the Fear Street Trilogy. You can even watch the first film in the X film series on Netflix, which is X.
