I liked the creepy atmosphere, but it has too many glaring plot holes. Longlegs started the murder-suicide killings in the mid 1960s, not visiting the Harkers until the 1970s. He had no accomplice that we know of, which implies he did go in the houses, even though the movie explicitly states that he didn't. It took the FBI 30 goddamn years to find one of the dolls that looks exactly like the murdered child? Based on the scene of her mom leaving one of the houses, she doesn't take the dolls with her. So... you know, a whole fuck ton of fingerprints. Speaking of FBI incompetence, did they seriously not figure out that there was someone else present in the house? Our forensics were pretty good by then, there's no reason they shouldn't have been able to tell in decades of killings that someone showed up at the house. This movie feels like they had an idea, but either didn't really think it through all the way, or they had to make the FBI incompetent to make it work.

To be honest I think you're forgetting about the entire supernatural aspect. Most of your qualms sound more like overthinking than actual plot holes, especially since Longlegs is CLEARLY receiving otherworldly help from satan. Throughout the movie, it's clear that the Devil, and by extension, Longlegs, know exactly what's going to happen and how. Why is it so unrealistic to assume that satanic magic aided Longlegs in not being discovered via fingerprints, or that the FBI didn't put two and two together with the lifelike dolls. We see in one of the scenes where the random FBI forensics investigator seems completely entranced (and dare I say, enamored) by the Carry Ann replica doll after being exposed to it, it's perfectly reasonable to assume that a similar type of magic would hinder any attempts to capture Longlegs until satan deemed it necessary to fulfill his plan (which we see play out toward the end of the film: Longlegs gets captured, kills himself, "releases" his spirit/energy upon dying at the police station, while leading Lee Harker to the final crime scene on purpose

Even if u don’t like it like many of us there’s some that wanted it more “Zodiac”; more “puzzle solving”; MORE of jst not what it is (marketing sold it like this) Go 2 movie, let IT tell/show what it is; not ur “thoughts/expectations” Talked to some where it didn’t meet expectations, which …BUT then ODDLY-their expectations were not even “good” So…??? See what “expectations” can do? Just let the film show you what it is This is a classic; right up there w/Se7en, Silence of the Lambs, The Shining.

I watched this movie literally today having never heard of it, but my dad bought tickets on a whim and I gotta say it was better than I thought! My favorite scene was the parallel between Lee and Longlegs with their respective driving scenes in the same car. Nic cage was genuinely insane in this and I gotta give him props because his character was who Jared Leto wants to be when he method acts. Like holy shit. The whole atmosphere really helped with the suspense, with all the open space and all. The trailers for other neon films while in the theater made me genuinely want to watch them, and that usually doesn’t happen. I can’t wait for Cuckoo to come out.

I thought it made for great entertainment at the time and served the movie well, but now looking back I see that It was kind of cheap and lazy story telling.

Although I was very intrigued at the start, I ultimately found the whole film predictable and disappointing. The acting and editing is phenomenal, but the script is filled with clunky exposition, unrealistic character choices, and very obvious reveals. An anti-climactic climax is the final nail in the coffin. The film boasts an intelligent mystery, and resolves it with a campy predictable outcome that feels like a first pass at the script. I'm glad many people seem to have enjoyed the film, I just was wondering if anyone else felt the same way I did? Or am I completely in the minority here?

It actually in hindsight makes all the cryptic dialogue, bible verses, and imagery feel like it was put in there just to be cool and mysterious, rather than have any actual real meaning. Even things like "who called her to let her know about the birthday party at the end", why they use time periods where publicly corrupt presidents were in office pictured on the wall, and the idea behind the goals of Long Legs become pretty uninteresting when you realize it all boils down to "evil bad, satan bad, oh he said hail satan, he bad"

Nic Cage's scream in the car was actually what completely took me out of the movie. The tension was building and letting it release that way was extremely unfulfilling. There were so many jumps in the storyline that were jarring like the movie had been chopped up to save time. ****Spoilers**** The whole aspect of putting souls in the dolls was also very unfulfilling. It's like they went "okay we have an interesting premise with a serial killer... let's just throw that out the window and SATAN IS BEHIND IT ALL." Even the whole "a gift from the church" part was very interesting. The mother was obviously involved from the moment you meet her. I really felt this movie lacked some cohesion in key moments. Moments when she was actually doing detective work and such were very interesting, but as soon as it completez the jump over to supernatural it lost me. Se7en is a great example pf how this should be done. Also "hey I conveniently have a photo of this exact guy in my childhood box of memories, so now we can go look aaaaaaand he's already caught. Just weird direction choices that could have been so much better. I understand I'm in the minority about this movie since everyone else seems to think it was great, but hey, that's cinema.

I appreciated the correction so much lmao. It’s bugged me my whole life whenever movies do that. I said out loud “Revelation. It’s singular, there’s no S” at the same time as Maika Monroe, and then I realized that she said it too, and I felt so vindicated lol. And I can tell you from experience that her character would know that too since she grew up with a very religious mother. I agree completely about the ending, could’ve had it go for literally just a minute longer, and it would’ve been absolutely perfect. But as it is, damn if this movie didn’t blow me away. I walked out of the theater in a daze, couldn’t believe what I watched. And then my mind raced back to all the clues I missed over the course of the movie and realized that I could’ve seen a lot of things coming, and so much lined up perfectly. Longlegs deserves a second viewing, and I can’t wait to see it again! Completely loved it. For me, right now it’s a 9.8/10, but a second watch would probably give it that last 0.2

This movie fell really flat for me. It was good and Nic Cage did a great job, but I was disappointed in the story direction and the use of Longlegs. It was terribly underwhelming. Sure, there was an eerie presence and some interesting moments. But at the end I couldn’t help but ask myself, “That’s it?” Those that compared this to Silence of the Lambs are def blowing smoke. This is no where in the ballpark of that masterpiece.

@@Skylerknowsphins People say Hereditary is like whoa so scary omg and it wasn't. People say the First Omen wasn't scary. To me - it was disturbing. It depends on which subgenre of horror you prefer. It's not really black and white. I believe jumpscares are outdated, they shouldn't be a thing in 2024, yet someone else loves those. It all depends on what you're looking for, what scares you, what haunts you.

I loved this movie. It's one of the best thrillers I've seen since Sinister. I'd give it 8/10, but that's because I didn't like the main character. I avoided all reviews on it until I watched it. I really enjoyed the tension and it's way better than most of the junk that's come out. That ending was so interesting, my heart was going the whole time. I loved that the film was able to hold tension and never shot itself. This year has already had two great films. This and Abigail.
