Opening credits

do you mean the:

Well you're slim and you're weak
You've got the teeth of the hydra upon you
You're dirty, sweet, and you're my girl

#

that's from a different song named Get It On, same band

Not the bang a gong

One that comes on right at the beginning even before longlegs comes on

I just watched the intro using a (ahem)camrip(ahem) and I didn't see not hear anything about a serpent

I googled it

#

Its from the book og revelations

As a lifelong Christian I wanna have a convo with Mr. Perkins

#

I feel like I'm missing something. The climax felt very straight forward.

#

At the start of the movie they go over the case and say that it's like there's someone in the house, but there's no evidence of anyone being there, and my brain instantly went "well, I guess they're being possessed to do it, probably by Satan". And then at the peak of the movie it comes out that is exactly what's happening, and rather than getting that satisfying movie twist moment, it felt more like "well yeah, obviously".

#

And then she kind of just walks into that last house, shoots them, and leaves. And it all felt very straightforward.

#

Idk, with how everyone was hyping up this movie so much I guess I was just expecting something a little more. And the fact that I did feel a little underwhelmed also makes me feel like I'm missing something

#

I get that the doll being unharmed means there's a loose thread and maybe there's something interesting there to unravel, but otherwise with that ending I just kind of thought "is that it"?

#

Also, when she went to shoot the doll and her gun clicked the girl next to me said "bruh" in the meme voice

fringe kindle
#

It was a stupid and generic climax unfortunately

faint quarry
#

I feel like they shouldn't have had Lee be a pyschic. I feel like that immediately opened the door to the supernatural being possible and immediately made me conclude that it was probably satanic possession.

#

I think that if they had the movie be a bit more grounded then the twist would have hit a bit harder

#

It also kind of feels like they never really came back to her being psychic after the first third of the movie. Or at least not in a very noticeable way.

#

Also, one last thing I'll say. When they're in the FBI department listening to Longlegs sing happy birthday and it's kind of silly, and then that one agent pauses it and speaks very frankly about the case, the juxtaposition reminded me of that one I Think You Should Leave skit where they're in court and there's a person detailing a very silly text exchange in a very serious voice.

lime vortex
#

the only real thing that I found with the ending was that Lee was probably arrested

Carter was very much trying to pinpoint her as the accomplice, wouldn't be surprised if they kept a side investigation directed at her. Should the cops come at the final crime scene and she's still there, she'll obviously be arrested for murder but Carter's skepticism might add to her case.

Kinda adds some weight to the severity of the ending, like how evil won or something. But the body lacks so much that it loses the reason for the weight

I'm so obsessed with this movie in that I think we need an extended cut, or maybe even a remake in the far future (even if we'll lose Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage's attachments)

finally watched this!

#

i liked it

#

not scary at all though

#

There is actually a shot that has stuck with me for a while. It’s the shot of Carrie Anne’s doll in front of the mirror. Let me see if I can find it

#

This one

#

Yeah for real

#

I was literally up late the other night thinking about that shot

#

Cause I was listening to Dead Meat’s podcast episode about Longlegs

#

can we be friends

#

Totally agree with that

#

like a deceptive detective thriller morphing into something else

#

demonic possession was the also the first thing that came to my mind too lmao

#

although I didn’t fully believe it until the reveal

#

So it was still surprising

faint quarry
#

It's just when it was revealed, it was less of an "OH MY GOD" and more of a "Oh, okay, so I WAS right"

#

And it's not like I disliked it. I still liked the movie. I just thought it wasn't the most shocking twist.

#

Which is fine. Not every movie needs to have world altering twists.

#

I think walking out of the movie I was a little bitter that the movie wasn't a 10/10 for me (I may have gotten caught up in the hype a little bit). But now that I've had some time to sit on it, I'm able to be content that it was still a decent movie and it doesn't need to be perfect for me.

craggy juniper
#

people are having sky high expectation for horror films nowadays because the bar hasn’t been set that high

#

So as much as a decent horror film will get a lot of hype

#

I mean longlegs was beyond decent, it’s an absolute masterclass imo, but the hype really does ruin it sometimes

faint quarry
#

I think this movie portrays itself as a very smart horror. There's a lot of mystery in the entire movie and it makes it seem like it's leading up to this big conclusion. I didn't think the ending was bad, per se, I just thought it was a little simple, given what I was expecting.

#

Like even if there was more back and forth between her and the other FBI agent or they showed her showing some remorse over having to shoot her partner and her mom, but instead they kind of glaze over that to get to the end and instead it felt like the ending was just "she shoots the bad guys and wins"

#

I think if the movie stuck the landing at the end then it would have been almost a 9 or 10 for me, but because it didn't it affected my enjoyment a little bit.

#

Like even showing us a tiny bit more where she gets arrested for the murders or something, that would have been a good bittersweet ending, in my opinion. She put a stop to the killings, but now has to pay the price for them. But instead they just ended it and we have to imagine what happens next, which I guess is interesting in itself, but not particularly satisfying.

I think the scene where Lee is looking through the old photos

#

And sees the pic of Longlegs. It’s a wild visual

#

oh right i remember that

#

when they found the doll in the barn and it opened its eyes

#

me and my friend both laughed so hard 😭😭

opal breach
#

I really think this movie was a satire

lime vortex
#

it would be such a shame if so considering how strong the concept is on paper

#

nowhere in Cage and Monroe's performance does it indicate satire

#

i havent watched any of his other films

#

but I think Perkins just has corny ideas

it's weighed down a lot by its editing decisions

I think I’m FINALLY watching this today

#

Anybody get hints of comedy, almost parody from this movie?

#

Like when the mom said something like “mommy used to be a surgeon, now she spends her life murdering families”

#

You can’t tell Me that wasn’t meant to be kind of funny and self aware

pure venture
#

i just saw a krsten video even he said it was satirical

#

something something critical of elevated horror

#

nah man , thats just nic feckin cage

#

I don’t think osgood Perkins is the type of guy to do some critique of modern horror

#

I think he just wanted to make a cool movie

So just watched it

#

I have a question so longlegs basically wanted harker to find all of this out basically giving her clues and leading her to find out but why did he even wanted her to find out was never explained

Her mother and the deal of the birthday

#

He wanted to replace her mother to continue it
