What is X Movie About?
A group of adult filmmakers arrives at a farm which was owned by Pearl and Howard, an elderly couple. The group set up their equipment in the guest house, and the couple was just next door to them. They shot adult scenes during the day, and Pearl was watching everything at a distance.
She asked her husband to have sex with her, but he refused and said his heart was too weak for it. Now, Pearl wanted to get the fun and desire a young adult can have. Eventually, she started killing, and Howard, too, joined. However, Maxine was the one who crushed Pearl and survived.

What Happened At The End of X Movie?
The killing starts when Pearl asks RJ to have sex with her, but he refuses. The group had six members, and RJ was one of them. When he refuses, Pearl stabs him until his death. Loraine and Wayne come out of the farmhouse to find missing RJ. When Wayne searches the barn and finds Pearl, she kills Wayne too. Howard lies that his wife is missing and invites Lorraine to his house, and locks her up in the basement with a corpse.
Maxine survived at the end of the movie (Credits: A24). Howard goes to the farmhouse again and repeats the same story, and asks for help. The group splits up to find Pearl, but Jackson is killed by Howard. Later, Pearl sleeps beside Maxine naked. Maxine and Bobby both wake up. Meanwhile, Howard kills Lorraine, who escapes the basement.
Pearl stands at the edge of the lake, so Bobby tries to help her, but Pearl tricks Bobby and pushes her into the lake, and an alligator eats Bobby up. When Howard gets a heart attack, Pearl is left with no one to support her. Maxine takes the keys to Maxine’s truck from his pocket and crushes Pearl’s head.
