Despite calls for awards like the Oscars to recognize horror films, MaXXXine director Ti West isn't sure it's necessary

MaXXXine.

After impressing audiences with her stellar performances in both X and Pearl, Mia Goth is ready to knock our socks off again with trilogy closer MaXXXine. In the new horror movie she returns as Maxine Minx who is now living in Hollywood attempting to make a career as an actor. However, complicating things is the fact that dangerous serial killer the Night Stalker is on the loose and that her violent past is coming back to haunt her.

Goth's performance will likely once again stir up the ongoing debate surrounding awards season and horror movies. Organizations like the Oscars are infamous for rarely nominating horror films, with the likes of Toni Collette for Hereditary, Lupita Nyong'o for Us, and Essie Davis in The Babadook often being cited as examples of terrible snubs. And that's only the start of the list, which often features Goth too for X, Pearl, and perhaps now MaXXXine.
