The best thing about X is the visuals. The synergy between director and cinematographer was reminiscent of some of the great slashers and it certainly helps to elevate this film in style.
However, for a slasher movie I was disappointed in the story. I do appreciate the attempt at doing something different with the antagonist but it was very unrealistic. I can buy a cannibalistic wielding chainsaw maniac, but the evil in X is more symbolic than terrifying.
All in all, this was okay but not memorable and more of an art house take on the genre.
