Followed Willa since her MTV Scream days as the lead Emma Duval and she was great in that. Then saw her in Blood Money. She played this greedy bitch who plays a bigger villain than the actual villain lol. Then she was great in Desperation Road. Then in Reacher season 1. Kyle Gallner's always been great a modern day scream king and to me this is Emma Duval meets Vince Schneider (Scream fans will get that reference :D). These two make the hottest duo I've seen in horror in a long while and Willa puts on the best performance I've seen in horror in YEARS and that's saying alot. Easily movie of the year for me because I'm a major horror head and one of my favorite thrillers ever. Such a flawless thriller the genre's needed for a long ass time and Willa is someone to look out for. So happy people are finally recognizing her talents.

I had no fear of Tim Burton ruining this with nostalgia bait. Glad he did what he’s great at!!! Also, if Disney wasn’t controlling every aspect of the Dumbo movie, I’m sure it wiener been way better. I don’t blame Tim at all for that one.

I think we need to get past “nostalgia” as a criticism. I saw the Bikeriders and felt nostalgia for a time I never lived. I think nostalgia is a powerful tool for dramatists to mine and really appreciate when it’s used well. Also the Big Eyes erasure is BULLSHIT.

I'm sitting here with Winona, and she says she wants to rub the bald head on your Captain Picard figurine. And like take your purple SuperGirl doll and make kissy face with him while Obiwan towers over them with his arms crossed disprovingly. I told her those are not dolls, those are collectible figurines, and men are very protective of them, and you would not be pleased. She said whatever and is now doing something else.

I don't think I'd seen Willa Fitzgerald or Kyle Gallner in anything, but their performances were absolutely incredible. This was a fun, unpredictable game of cat and mouse, and I enjoyed the nonlinear storytelling approach this took. I truly believe that Fitzgerald gave one of this year's best performances.

Willa was the lead actress in MTV Scream for 2 seasons, if your a Scream fan you may of seen it and not recognize it. That's where I first saw her from and it's so hard to believe how much she's grown and now putting on a stunning performance side by side Kyle Gallner who's been in so many horror movies over the years. You probably came across at least a couple of Kyle's movies if your a horror fan and he really changed up his look as he got older. This movie is so freaking good. Willa is stunning in looks and performance. Kyle's a definite modern day Scream King and I'm here for it.

more like eli roth is a hack. hostel and cabin fever were his only great accomplishments. imagine a production studio paying top dollar for Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart, and Jamie Lee Curtis and the director/writer of this project was Eli Roth. might as well have thrown that money into a blender and then sprinkle it on the amazon rain forest.

Saw this movie last nite w/my daughter who is a big fan of horror films. I think I really liked it. “Think” being the operative word. I kept saying “ok, now I’m really confused” during the second act. By the time the third act was unraveling, i was having a hard time putting the disjointed pieces together. I spent the whole movie “thinking” and trying to make sense of the stuff that kept getting thrown at me until I was exhausted. I’m not a fan of movies that have to keep explaining the stuff that’s going on to keep me interested. It’s a lot of mental exercising which takes away from just enjoying what I’m watching. I loved everything that you liked about the movie and characters. The cinematic effects were great, the music was right up my alley, it was humorous at times, the characters were interesting, so I do “think” that I liked it. I’m going to watch Luz & Longlegs because of this film since they’ve been mentioned in all of the reviews I’ve watched. I subscribed to your channel because I liked the things that you said and look forward to hearing your reviews of other movies. A.

So, the film opens up with the titular Longlengs driving up to meet a young girl, Lee Harker, in a snowy grounds outside of her isolated home. This first sequence is shown in a 4:3 ratio and sports a twisted peakaboo game with Harker and Longlengs. He has been killing on spree for decades and in each crime scene there is only a note left with some occult symbols. They initially make no sense. Then cut to the present day and Harker, portrayed by Maika Monroe, now a investigation agent, along with her partner Agent Fisk on their first day out in the field. She is investigating a house which is connected to the murders. She then yells at her partner with confidence that the killer is inside. To Harker dismay, her partner dismisses the suggestion entering the house while calling for backup. Agent Fisk and Harker enters the house, they are greeted by Longlengs (unseen) and he says that his friend is downstairs. There is a little altercation and Agent Fisk dies, while Harker is able to escape. Then a little background is shown regarding Harker previous evaluation to become an field agent. The Bureau psych evaluation thinks that Harker has special abilities and intuition, causing her boss, Agent Carter, to make her a key member in the investigation of an onslaught that occured in 10 different household. The husband kills the whole family then suicide. In all houses there are no signs of forced entry and the same note with cryptic messages is found signed by longlengs. Harker is then shown poring over file cases and crime scene photos. She tells the investigation team that she came to a conclusion that the 10 families had daughters that were 9 years old and they all had birthday on the 14th of a given month. She doesn't mention to them that she was probably stalked by the killer. She then receives a cryptic message herself, which she decodes as the movie progresses. From here to there some scenes with her mom are shown, she is a religious devout and asks Harker to pray devotedly to protect her from the evil. Then with a sole longlengs survivor that has been institutionalized they are able to trace the killer, who is a devil worshiper and a doll maker. It is then shown that longlengs gifts the families with the dolls and that some people have been influenced by subliminal messages in corroborating with the serial killer, even Harker's own mother. Then Longlengs finally is shown by the 40 minute mark of the movie. He is basically the personification of T-Rex - Get It On, the lyrics pretty much describe him and his fixation for young girls. He looks like as if Tiny Tim and Marc Bolan had a son. His face and skin complexion are really pale and he also uses a whitish foundation with a red lipstick, he has a curly but moopy silver hair and he articulates as if he were a puppet doll. She then realizes that there were far more people involved and that the dolls were demon receptacles, once the girls have their birthday on 14th, the demon possess the family and then the killings happen. That is why there is no sign of struggle. Then it is shown Longlengs making the dolls, he hears voices and start making them as an evil Gepeto. He is the vessel for a satanic demon himself. Longlegs is injured during a pursuit and dies. The demon then leave him to his death. In the last act there is the revelation that her boss was a satanic worshiper all along and, alongside Harker own mother they were helping the demon. Harker is possessed by the longlegs demon as it is subtle shown in the ending as she prepares for work. There you go.
