It\'s spooky season again on Pop Screen, and this month we\'re kicking off with a look at Ti West\'s saucy seventies slasher X, starring Kid Cudi along with Mia Goth, Brittany Snow, Martin Henderson and Mia Goth again. And since it\'s not a Halloween show without Directors Uncut host Rob, we\'ve got Rob back in to talk about the film\'s generational politics, praise its light-touch evocation of the 1970s, and wonder if it\'s more of an insult to call this elevated horror or un-elevated horror.
\\n
\\nAlong the way, there\'s discussion of Kid Cudi\'s odd, ambitious acting career, the sense of imminent dread that seizes audiences every time Mia Goth appears in a film and West\'s projected trilogy based on this film\'s characters. We also pitch a new horror movie to A24 which is just an old person eating a sandwich, but shot really well. They might go for it?

\\nIf you want to keep us broadcasting from the home of a creepy old couple who don\'t know what we\'re doing yet, you can donate to our Patreon where you\'ll also find Rob championing Asian films that don\'t have a UK release, Graham reviewing classic Doctor Who serials selected at random, as well as video games chatter, early access to our YouTube content, and an exclusive monthly bonus episode of this show. The next one\'s out tomorrow, and it\'s about the Alice Cooper B-movie Monster Dog. It\'s from the director of Troll 2! How can you resist? Find out more on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook.
