'MaXXXine' Is Cheap-Chic Horror At Its Finest

Huff Post

A superb Mia Goth and Giancarlo Esposito capture the sleaze and wild ambition of '80s Hollywood in writer-director Ti West's concluding chapter of his popular slasher series. And, most interestingly — within its first 30 minutes, even — it scrubs off the grime of the ’80s to morph into a “Cinderella”-esque romcom classic that helped usher in a cleaner, more …
