    I don't think Longlegs was the actual devil or possesed by the devil. He was just carrying out his will. Through devil worship and ritual, the devil's 'magic'/'powers' flowed through Longlegs and into the dolls when embedding that dark smoke-like soul in the metallic spheres in their heads.

      But, ultimately, the devil is still the bad guy in the movie. I think the movie would have been more interesting if there were a practical reason that Longlegs was able to coerse these men into killing their families besides the fact that they were actually being possessed by Satan.

    • @matthewgladney5830
      @matthewgladney5830 8 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @@nastee10 Was the devil the bad guy, though? Were they actually possessed by Satan? They were certainly possessed by an evil sort of dark magic that Longlegs was able to conjure, and yes, it was powered by the devil, but it wasn't really Satan himself possessing them. Think of it like Star Wars. There's 'the Force.' And, specifically, the Dark Side of Force. That is what the Sith used. Look back at A New Hope for reference. The Emperor is named-checked. He's, well, he's the emperor. He's in command of things. But then there's Grand Moff Tarkin, and then under him is Darth Vader (Tarkin does appear to have some command over Vader). At any rate, to compare to Longlegs: The Emperor is the devil, and Darth Vader is Longlegs. But, at least with A New Hope, you'd be hard-pressed to find someone who will say that "the Emperor is the bad guy of the movie." Most folks would say that Darth Vader is the bad guy. Same with Longlegs (heck, the film is named after him). Satan is just the Emperor in this regard. We barely even see him during the movie.

    I went into the theater feeling so terrified because I saw the trailer where they showed Maika Monroe's heart rate going to 170 bpm after she saw Nic Cage's face for the first time. And his face had a bar over it in the trailer. I was expecting to see something so horrifying and it was just the same face we saw through the entire movie. Honestly I thought he was wearing a mask the entire time and something horrible was underneath. The marketing for this movie was way over hyped. It wasn't a bad movie. Just not what I had anticipated.

    It sounds counterintuitive that a serial killer would want to be caught, but there have been so many serial killers that have outed themselves and they’ve actually gotten caught because of their desire to take credit for their murders. It’s actually not uncommon. I’m thinking specifically of Btk zodiac killer, Ed Kemper confessed etc….

    Awesome review! I don't think that LongLegs/Cobble was the actual Devil, but "A friend of a friend" to Mr. Downstairs - which is what he called the Devil. I do think that he was some sort of lesser demon though, and that he was sacrificing the families and making it public to honor Satan. So the families were his devout offerings, creepy as that is. And he recruited Lee's mother to further spread the corruption.
    But he said "Hail Satan" not because he's the devil himself, but because he was worshipping the devil. That's my take anyway, lol

I was already imagining all kinds of things and your rundown tells me my ideas were way too hopeful. Underplaying things is always safer to me.

    ❤ your reviews and you’re always the first reviews I watch after a film. Glad I wasn’t the only one who thought of Baby Jane! If Baby Jane Hudson had a baby with the devil, he/she would look like Longlegs. Instead of singing Get It On (Bang a Gong), he would be singing “I’ve written a letter to daddy His address is Hell below” in his Baby Jane costume and doll nearby.

    Just got back from seeing Longlegs. I dug it. Definitely overhyped but I'll add it to the library once released. Felt a bit rushed. If Perkins had a full two hours he could have really dug in to the mythos.
    Oz is a dope director and he comes up with great stories. I think his movies would be even better if he brought in other writers. 7/10.

    Im confused about when Lee's mom would have called the police and reported the intruder or mysterious guy? Because she went straight outside when Longlegs was outside and then she made a deal with him right then we are led to believe, in order to save Lee's life

    I think the reason why she conveniently understood the evil symbol language was cuz subconsciously in her memories she remembers being around longlegs character and maybe he taught her or showed her what the language meant while those years he was hiding in the basement. Cuz a bunch of times she's getting flashbacks randomly to being inside her mothers basement and snake stuff being all over the place. Cuz remember her memory was wiped somehow, but she still has a connection to longlegs and he knows who she is and has been following her, cuz he's been with her for a long time. Originally i thought the twist would be the main character girl was the partner of longlegs and she was a plant in the FBI. But ut turned out to be the mom which actually surprised cuz i thought it would be the main character who was behind it all cuz she somehow knew so much about the crimes but its simply that she had the guy living in her moms basement since she was kid.

    Hey there you guys! Yesterday I had the day off and went to see three movies. First I saw "Daddio" with Sean Penn and Dakota Johson. I'm surprised you guys have not reviewed it. This film was really excellent. Dakota Johson proves she can be an amazing actress. Also I watched "Thelma" with June Squibb. I purposely went to see it after your review from a few months ago. You guys were spot on about how wonderful this movie turned out to be. Last night I watched a re-release of "Close Encounters of the Third Kind." It was obviously outstanding to see in the theatre.

    normally i like Fish Jelly Film Reviews and will check in here before bothering with a movie. I was already planning to see Long Legs having liked Black Coat's Daughter and some aspects of Gretel & Hansel. More importantly i like horror but have become tired of sequels, reboots, anything from Bloomhouse and therefore almost all that plays my nearby theater. I like Oz Perkins film sense. His deliberate slow pace and gorgeous imagery along with creepy/violent/disturbing/evil moments. So i went to see Long Legs. Even brought a friend.
    Now checking out the Fish Jelly review i am reminded by how much i didn't like the plot, plot twists and characters. At film's end i wondered out loud there was nothing that had me care about the people and why they did what they did. The atmosphere is fine. The camera shots, settings and....deliberate slow pacing made me feel i didn't waste my time.
    I read the interview with Oz in the NYT and he references the Thai art film Uncle Boonme as well as Dogtooth. So he has great influences. I think his writing for film needs help....

  • @nox5870

    It wasn't ''A Scariest film of the Decade'', But it was definitely an interesting watch, I would definitely recommend it to people who are more into crime/thriller genre, because this is definitely not a horror film. It has horror elements but it wasn't a full blown horror movie from start to finish. There was some unsettling and creepy parts but I never felt truly scared. Nic Cage and Maika Monroe were both great, the actress who plays Lee's mother in the film was fantastic, she was absolutely creepy. But it definitely a type of movie that you need to see twice, it demands that. So I am definitely going to be seeing again but this time alone at home. I just came out of the screening couple of minutes ago, so the movie is very fresh in my mind but I just... I don't know, I need to sit with this movie for a bit and think how I feel about it, because there were stuff I really, really liked and then there were some other stuff that I would put under a question mark. That's why I think it necessary to see it twice. I can say that I think this film should have been either longer or a mini-series, a 1 hour 40 minute runtime is not enough to tell such a story I feel like, there is quite a lot that is left to viewer's imagination, a very ambiguous ending. I don't hate the ending but I do wish we got a conclusion, it felt like we will be getting Longlegs 2 or something... but either way, I can't decide fully on how I feel about this film, I will say I did like it more than I did not like it, but I don't want to go in the details because I am not 100% sure if even the things I did not like I truly don't like you know? But it definitely was an experience that I overall enjoyed but at the same let down by few things, I did feel like it needed to be longer at the very least and the jumpscares were weak... absolutely weak to me. But I will still recommend for anybody to go check it out for yourself, especially like I said before if you are fan of these type of movies (Silence of the Lambs, Seven or Zodiac) then this could be a good time for you. I will say this, this film is definitely also not on par with Silence of the Lambs or Seven in terms of filmmaking, storytelling and etc etc... It definitely pays homage to those films but at the same time brings an interesting unique twist to the movie which I did really like. So yeah, go check it out. I feel like this movie is going to be very divisive, some people will love it some people will like it and some will straight out hate it, it definitely a more of A24 type movie. Also, Nic Cage's performance was definitely something... I did not know how to approach his character... but eventually he did get under my skin but I can see some people straight out laugh at this character because of how ridiculous he is in this. Even I smiled couple of times because Nic Cage was having a lot of fun in this one, oh my oh my... He was chewing every scene, the interrogation scene definitely is going to be a memorable scene from the movie. Gosh, I went on a huge rant.. I need to chill, but at the moment it very hard for me to rate this, I need to wait a bit until I can truly comprehend what I just saw.
