‘XX’ Trailer: Karyn Kusama, Roxanne Benjamin and Other Women Directors Present a Horror Anthology with a Twist

In what’s becoming something of an annual tradition, the latest anthology film is set for release next month: “ XX,” which follows the likes of “Holidays” and “Southbound” in assembling a team of directors to contribute individual stories to an omnibus project. With all four of its segments directed by women, “XX” — as in, two x chromosomes — looks to distinguish itself from its predecessors. Watch the trailer below.
