Welcome to “Not Couple Goals” where co-hosts Allie Nelson and Tyler McCarthy do a deep dive into a different ridiculous romantic thriller from the vantage point of their long-term relationship.
Allie, a TV writer/producer and actress, has an affinity for romantic thrillers, the more salacious the better. Tyler, an entertainment reporter and critic, often finds himself drawn in despite his better judgment. Join them as they explore all the ways it’s possible to love too hard… like WAY too hard.
In this episode, Allie and Tyler dip their toes into the alligator filled waters of horror with the 2022 movie “X,” starring Mia Goth, Jenna Ortega, Martin Henderson, Brittany Snow and Scott “Kid Cudi” Mescudi, written and directed by Ti West. Listen in as they discuss the way this film purposely subverts expectations, muse about whether the film crew was successfully creating an elevated adult film and wonder if all this murder could have been prevented by some good old fashioned lovin’. Should you watch this one with Grandma? Tune in to find out!
