A24 has recently shared a trailer for their new film, X, which looks like it will be the studio's next horror hit.
View this video on YouTube A24 / Via youtube.com The synopsis reads: "At a secluded farmhouse in Texas, a film crew arrives to shoot an adult film. Their hosts, a reclusive elderly couple, take a special interest in their young guests. As night falls the couple's leering interest turns violent." Based on the film's trailer, X looks like it will pay homage to classic slasher films from the 1970s, particularly The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
A24 / Via youtube.com Plus, with the presence of a creepy elderly couple, it seems X will be similar to M. Night Shyamalan's film The Visit.A24 has been known to make many critically acclaimed films featuring fresh new voices and many bizarre stories.
A24 / Via youtube.com X looks like it will fit right in with the studio's frightening filmography, which includes modern classics like Hereditary, Midsommar, The Witch, and The Lighthouse. The cast of this film includes Mia Goth (Suspiria, Nymphomania), Scott Mescudi (aka Kid Cudi), Jenna Ortega (You, The Babysitter: Killer Queen), Martin Henderson (The Ring), and Brittany Snow (The Pitch Perfect trilogy).
A24 / Via youtube.com These actors have shown their promise in the past, and their scenes in the trailer effectively show off how good they are. The writer/director of this film is Ti West, whose previous works include V/H/S, The House of the Devil, and The Sacrament. West has also directed episodes for TV series like Wayward Pines, Outcast, and The Exorcist.

A24's films have had a history of subverting expectations, which is often thanks to their trailers intentionally misleading the audience (ex: Hereditary, It Comes at Night).
A24 / Via youtube.com As a result, anything can happen in their new horror film, since the trailer still tells us very little about the plot (one bit of dialogue even implied that the story will change halfway through). We can only wait and see what happens when the film premieres on March 18.Do you think X will be one of the studio's best films ever? What did you think about the trailer?
