Longlegs - Movie Review

My eyes were scanning the backgrounds nonstop in this movie. Big props to the cinematography where door frames, windows, and hallways were always looming in the background.

"Fuck that door frame" is such a real horror movie experience LOL

That doorframe was on point. I was anticipating something coming out. but nope. You're always on your toes. What an experience.😄

That door frame shot was awesome. At one point someone dropped something in the theatre and everyone just gasped and then laughed. The fear was palpable.

The part where nick cage just screams and sings out of nowhere caught me off guard haha

The color and lighting was so stark and gorgeous. I felt my skin crawl with the shots in Harker's house. There was something in the lighting and the coloring that just made her house seem both cavernous and claustrophobic at the same time. This movie was incredible.

HUGE CONGRATS TO YOU CHRIS ON THE PREMIER!!! That such SUCH a huge accomplishment and I couldn't be more proud as someone who's been watching since the beginning. Wish I could attend :(

Feeling threatened while walking through the horror section of a video store was such an amazing experience. Incredible box art! I’ll never forgot the fear.

I can’t wait to see the sequel, ‘Shortarms’

The advertising of this movie was pure genius. And i never got so hyped for a horror movie.

Holy shit! I immediately thought of Cure as well! The dream-like feel, the oppressive sense of atmosphere and the disorientation and paranoia it can cause...there are also wide angle shots where the characters feel far away or just out of reach and you're looking all over the screen anticipating something to appear and sometimes it does, and other times it doesn't, but you're always questioning what you might've just seen. Keeps you on your toes and feels so intense. Definitely my kind of horror!

It was good but honestly it felt like it didn’t execute a finale as good as it could’ve been. Everything was 10/10 until it ends and then it feels as if it was end too soon; like there was much more horror that could’ve been achieved so a little bit disappointing in that sense. A good example I can give is the hereditary movie. The film develops and unfolds and it escalates more and more and the it reaches its absolute peak and it leaves you feeling a satisfying sense of overwhelm shocked and fear. This movie long legs was on the right track similar to that recipe of hereditary but it ended before it could’ve been at it’s peak. It’s a film that unfortunately doesn’t reach that peak. Aside from that critic it was very well filmed and beautiful and I really loved it, loved it so much that I’m disappointed it didn’t reach further

The marketing team needs to be commended

Here’s my advice, guys: go in with no expectations and let the movie unfold. Take it in, enjoy it. Let Perkins and Cage hypnotize you. It’s so soothing.

I watched this film at 11am today in a COMPLETELY empty theater. I even walked up and down all the aisles to confirm. I kept hearing rustling around me, and I would get freaked out because I was supposed to be the only one there! Turns out, it was the impeccable sound design. Freaked me the heck out, man. What a fantastic experience. Probably my best theater experience to date.

I gave it a C+. It had the potential to go so much deeper. I thought it was going to be more intense. The storyline was there.... 🤷‍♀️

People will talk about Nic Cage, but let's be fully clear... this is the Maika Monroe show! I was completely captivated from start to finish. It's one of the creepiest movies I've seen in years.

This movie was 10/10 fkn weird as hell. Silent theater. Couldn’t hear a breath. It was fkn incredible and super original. Nick Cage performance deserves a damn award!

0/10 Legs weren't even long.

Pls manage your expectations before going in. Is this the scariest movie you'll ever see? No Is this the best horror movie ever?No Is this a classic in the making? Yes Is this a flawed masterpiece? Yes This movie Is one of the most immersive , atmospheric , creepy and unsettling movies I've ever seen with glorious performances, precise meticulous cinematography and an exceptionally crafted soundscape. Where it somewhat falters Is in it's delivery of the main plot That being said this is the kind of movie that pulls you in and doesn't let you go till the credits roll.
