Seldom do fans get to be horrified and terrified by horror movies these days. Every trope has been done to death and every possible move can be anticipated by the viewers early on. However, there seems to be a new movie in theatres that is said to be made of nightmares. Starring Nicolas Cage, the movie titled Longlegs is playing in theatres and terrifying fans across genres.
Released on July 12, 2024, Longlegs is about an FBI agent who is tasked with solving impossible murders across the state of Oregon. Just the trailer of the movie is enough to send shivers down your spine, imagine what the entire film is capable of. A murder investigation takes a twisted turn as the agent finds herself pulled into the chaos of otherworldly happenings.
Viewer calls Nicolas Cage’s Longlegs Demonic and Horrifying
Certified fresh with 86% approval ratings on Rotten Tomatoes, Longlegs comes as a tidal wave in the horror movie genre to shake things up. Starring Nicolas Cage as the titular monster, the movie is hauntingly terrifying, to say the least. Reviewers and fans alike are calling this movie one of the best horror films ever made, with a special focus on Cage’s brilliant portrayal.
However, one particular viewer seems to be deeply impacted by the movie and shared a detailed review on TikTok, which was later reposted on X (formerly Twitter). The unnamed woman has caused a stir on social media as she requested all Christians to not watch Longlegs as the movie is made with Satan and his actions in mind. She said,
This movie is tailored specifically for following that guy down there. It angers me because this is Hollywood’s attempt to get to your family and household. I’m not going to give that guy down there any credit… I went to the bathroom, I left the movie, and cried like I had never before.
She further explains that she did not finish the movie and instead chose to walk out in the middle. The message and the portrayal in Longlegs are so strong that a devout Christian like her could not stomach the narrative. This review has sparked a curiosity in fans to actually go and see what the movie is all about. On the other hand, some people disagree with her and claim that it’s not that scary either.
Longlegs works in an atmosphere of dread
The standout aspect that has certainly made Longlegs unique in its genre is the movie’s play on dread and terror. Cage shines the brightest in his role as Longlegs, but apart from that, the subtle underlying creepiness works in the favor of the movie. It excels in creating panic and forces viewers to uncomfortably shift in their seats.
No matter the level of horror in the flick, Longlegs is certainly not for the faint-hearted. As the agent investigates the string of deaths, she uncovers an occult activity that has been overshadowing the region. Moreover, it is poised as a satanic movie, so it is bound to touch upon some otherworldly aspects that some religious people may not like.
Longlegs is currently playing in theatres near you.
