Pearl (2022)
Directed by Ti West
Quick Hit
Pearl comes off like a head-trip horror pieceāunhinged, tragic, while the pressure keeps climbing.
Full Take
Pearl leans hard into psychological horror energy, and Ti West keeps the tone unhinged without letting the movie drift. It balances style and ugliness the right way, letting the mood get under your skin before the worst of it lands. Not flawless, but the swing is worth it.
