Longlegs

Writen by Sejian on August 25, 2024

I was really hoping this would make up for the wasted potential of Oddity (2024), and it certainly did. Longlegs (2024) mixes elements of paranormal pseudoscience with the "Devil made me do it" Satanic panic to deliver a satisfying slow burn thriller where the Devil is actually making them do it. Nicholas Cage delivers a damn good performance as the titular Longlegs and it's nice to see Kiernan Shipka in yet another "psycho" role after The Blackcoat's Daughter (2017). MaXXXine (2024) is next on my list. _Please don't disappoint_. ♪ Let me in now and it can be nice! Make me go now and I'll have to come back, not once, not twice, but as many times as I like! **SPOILERS BELOW!** Y'know, if Ruth had just shot this !@#$er, we could've avoided a lot of bloodshed. Also, kids, don't be Agent Browning. It's important to be aware of your surroundings. This scene is probably the worst offender in this movie. Also, also, blink and you'll miss it, but the Devil does a peekaboo off in the distance when Lee turns to investigate the first gunshot.
