The Bette Davis quote shown at the beginning of the film is misquoted
Scenario
In 1980s Hollywood, adult film star and aspiring actress Maxine Minx finally gets her big break. But as a mysterious killer stalks the starlets of Hollywood, a trail of blood threatens to reveal her sinister past.. The Hollywood star Maxine puts her cigarette out on is Theda Bara's, the actress Pearl took inspiration from to name her alligator in Pearl (2022)..
I crushed her fucking head
It is actually "Until you're known in my profession as a monster, you're not a star.". Maxine Minx: Do you know what happened to the last person who tried to kill me? Fitting with the film's 80s aesthetic, after the credits, a "Be kind rewind" sticker is shown, like on many video store rentals..

Gimme All Your LovinWritten by Frank Beard (as Frank Lee Beard), Billy Gibbons & Dusty Hill (as Joe Michael Hill)Performed by ZZ TopCourtesy of Warner RecordsBy arrangement with Warner Music Group Film & TV Licensing. Shoutout to the filmmakers for a great trailer because that's about where the greatness ends.This film has a pretty solid start for the first 15-20 minutes that seems to set the tone, but it abandons that tone along the way pretty fast. The plot is lackluster and does nothing at all to make you care about any of the characters other than Maxine.
Although, sometimes, Maxine is insufferable
Several of the decisions she makes in the movie do not make sense and are incredibly inconsistent with the character.EVERY "twist" in the movie's plot is predictable if you've watched more than 10 movies in your lifetime.Kevin Bacon was awesome as usual. That's the only reason I gave this a 3.. A24 has produced some of the most memorable horror films of the 21st century.
