Kinds of Kindness also just came out here,would love a reaction to that if u guys didn't see it already haha

[@AlbertoMartinez765]

The Devil shows up in silhouette 15X in the Movie and you guys didn't spot it ONCE..I am so disappointed in you Gregg...) Do a short video where you and Roxx try to spot HIM. Might be Fun. PS Most people have ONLY spotted him 11 X the Director said it was 15.

[@joshbourne9679]

The devil shows up in many background shots even when characters aren’t looking at it. It’s pretty spooky when you catch glimpses of it

[@PossiblyTheBatman]

I believe it's 10 or 11 times throughout the film The Devil appears

[@miquonk]

Got any timestamps?

[@sehnisweet343]

really??? :o like what scenes? just for example

[@violentlycreamy]

a few instances: when she sees the silhouette in the woods, the devil fades away right behind. when her mom shoots the lady and she's in the doorway, when she moves to the right to go outside the window in the background to the left. also at the end when she goes to ruby's party and he closes the front door - the reflection

[@magnusbruxo.794]

@@sehnisweet343 when she's looking at the clues in the beginning. Also when she see's longlegs outside the window the devil is behind him then disappears.

[@Noisycatstephanie]

“It seems I wore my longlegs today” is a very “friend of the family” thing to say to a kid. I heard it growing up.

[@specificsoup]

Oh interesting! What does it mean?

[@Noisycatstephanie]

@@specificsoup because the adult is so much taller, so they cant talk eye to eye with a kid. That’s why when it is child Lee’s perspective, you can’t see Longlegs’ face. It is a kinda “dad” joke, though I only ever heard it from uncles and dad’s friends.

[@specificsoup]

​@@Noisycatstephanie oh that makes sense haha. so he probably calls himself Longlegs since he's often talking to / commanding children I guess :/

[@southparkfan01]

​@@specificsoupthe director said the character calls himself that because it sounds cool. There's absolutely no REAL or plot driven reason for the name.

[@luke_0605]

[@TinyToadSage]

I demand that 24 minute cut of Nicolas Cage singing Happy Birthday. Seeing this in theater was the best sound experience ever tbh. The theater had that room on max volume, so the first jumpscare was a LOT louder than I expected. And perhaps the first time a jumpscare legitimately made me yelp.

[@athenajaxon2397]

Oh my god yes the theater was so quiet I could hear a pin drop

[@itsPayton358]

Same here! The sound in my theater was on MAX and that opening scene scared the CRAP out of me!!!

[@petersfilmstudios24]

The only time a jumpscare has ever made me audibly react has been on Dead by Daylight getting jumpscare by Myers or Ghostface. Never really happened while watching a movie.

[@osmanyousif7849]

Feels like something he would do. Nic Cage:🎵Happy Birthday...🎵 Director: AND CUT! Nic Cage:🎵...to you! Happy Birthday to you! Happy Birthday...🎵 Director: Uh, Mr Cage? I said cut, we're done rolling? Hello?! Cameraman: Hey, just let him be him...

[@Jonathan_Collins]

For most of the movie my eyes were scanning the entire screen. I was looking at and through doorways, windows, hallways, etc. More than a couple of times I was focusing on the back of or an adjacent room. The suspense was constant and paced really well. I felt genuinely uncomfortable even during simple conversations. This was great at making me overthink things and keep me invested in the story.

[@MarcoBayod_MB]

I was looking at the ceiling of the movie theater... SCARED!

[@ZachBobBob]

Yeah this movie made me feel so goddamn tense in the cinema because the screen is so big and I was just constantly scanning the backgrounds for spooky shit

[@yt.byliam]

i would honestly love if osgood perkins got a directing nomination because it’s so good.

[@louisdavies8050]

That’s because the film is visually excellent (sound also) even if I have issues with final third. Perkins utilises lots of techniques like negative space in the shots, which make you think something is going to come into frame.

[@SantosAl]

Is it just me or are there like shadows that looked like a devil some times in the background?

[@caseyh8386]

This is exactly what us Nic Cage fans want and he fully delivers and doesn't hold back 😂 he's such a character, love him

[@soliduswasright678]

The clocks in her mom's house all point to the number 6.

[@Alex_From_Florida]

Fun fact: when Longlegs begins to sing happy birthday at the end of the movie, the theater lights were programed to come on by itself, possibly to represent birthday candles. What’s more crazier is that, coming from a theater employee, we didn’t even know that was the case until me and a coworker talked to some of the guests and saw it for ourselves later.

[@TRENZEN00]

I didn't realize how demonic this movie was until the middle near the end of the movie, especially in the end where the movie delivers a message a lot of people look over which is the devil can disguise itself as many things to enter your home .

[@zabe428]

It was a difficult watch bc it did depict satanic worship.

[@VEILmscx]

One thing you missed but becomes obvious in rewatches is that there are images of the devil in shadows throughout the film

[@super_arcane_boy]

The fact that he left that letter in Lee's house, knows her name, knows where she lives, is how I knew she was the girl from the first scene.

Man that jumpscare when she was looking through the photos scared the shit out of me in the cinema. Felt my soul get ripped out of me

[@azmadeclutch9666]

I had forgotten Alicia Witt's name was in the opening credits and got thrown for a loop when I realized afterwards that she was Lee's mother. Completely unrecognizable.

[@thequadglaser1983]

This was directed by Anthony Perkins son, Osgood Perkins. He also directed Gretel & Hansel and The Blackcoats Daughter (I haven't seen the latter but I need to, I heard it's good). Perkins also had a small role in NOPE, he was the director of the commercial that OJ brought the horse to.

[@bettysmith4666]

Left out the best part... he also acted in Legally Blonde! Which I can't help but find hilarious given the creepiness of this movie. Great director.

[@Hey_Jamie]

He had a role in Legally Blonde too where he played a meek, awkward dude who didn’t have a chance with women so Reese Witherspoon slapped him and lied for him

[@Wraiven22]

I hated Blackcoat’s Daughter personally, but I loved Longlegs! Need to see Hansel and Gretel still!

[@kimberlyjeanne9456]

So excited, this is one of my new favorite horror movies. It’s so unhinged and creative I couldn’t not guess the end until it happened. Love the silence of the Lambs feel and the girl from It follows did such a great job in this movie, along with Cage who is unrecognizable

[@pmontyjaaaymes488]

Got a Sinister feel as well. Also a good movie

[@notactuallyollie]

Would recommend Watcher, with Maika Monroe in the lead again and it's very tense. It's another slow burn thriller that's very clever and very good. Very simple, and I think that's why it doesn't get much credit, but it's one of my favorite thrillers. Her and Mia Goth are owning the horror space right now.

[@MelLovesMoviesAndBooks]

Growing up in a hoarders home. I can totally relate Greg. It sucked growing up not having friends or family over because of your embarrassing home. Cookbooks and food is what my mom hoarded. I hope your parents have gotten the help they needed to fix the hoarding.

[@georgeparker8198]

I think it's hilarious that Roxy keeps trying to call this a "fun movie" and Greg is like "...what? No" 😂😂😂😂

[@Galantski]

That "let me in now..." sing-song with the hand gesticulations loonks like he's trying to cast some sort of spell on Lee and her mom. I don't think law enforcement caught him as much as _he wanted them to catch him,_ similar to when John Doe turns himself in at the police station in _Se7en._

[@denzelelysium]

"Mommy, Daddy, unmake meeeeee!" That's a line from a heavy metal song. A lot of his "quotes" are from 80's/90's heavy metal. The satanic panic of the 80's/90's was all about decrying heavy metal saying it was Satan trying to influence the youth/kids... Great subtle reference made by this movie.

[@AbsoluteHero42]

As a Saxophonist who studied a lot of contemporary work and composers. I freaking LOVE NICK CAGE. Ifkyk.

[@vikkyreads]

This might be a reach, and I haven't seen anyone say this before, but after the FBI watch Longlegs' interview where he sings Happy Birthday to Harper for 24 minutes, they pause the tape with his teeth showing and then Carter sits down in front of the TV, and for a small second his head is exactly within his mouth as if Longlegs is biting into his head; 'You've got the teeth of the Hydra upon you.' Possibly hinting at the coming end of Carter. Like I said, probably a reach.

[@sehnisweet343]

Honestly I dont think that’s a huge reach, in movies like this where it’s all about little clues and signs and symbols and things in the background I bet they thought of every little detail in each scene so to me it’s totally plausible that that’s intentional

[@0x_Ho11oW_x0]

I also noticed the placement

[@craiganderson5813]

The only thing I didn't like about this film was the ending. It left me wanting more, and I still have unanswered questions.

[@alfichompo]

Also the ending was very abrupt and ambiguous, the first two acts were good but the third

[@Arcannabis]

@@craiganderson5813 ambiguous ending like IT follows which she also lead the cast of. Are these movies related by chance? They had a similar tension build

[@specificsoup]

I’ve had to watch reactions to make sense of the ending. I think that Lee Harker is now taking the role of Longlegs. There is some supernatural aspect that is causing her to be “stuck.” She doesn’t go to try and stop her boss from killing his wife I think because she’s “stuck.” And her gun is apparently not out of bullets when she tries to shoot the doll, but misfired multiple times. All of this is apparently some kind of meddling from the devil. There’s some sense that Lee Harker will be basically forced(?) to take the role of Longlegs and/or her mother now that they’re both dead

[@specificsoup]

@@alfichompo I do think this movie could have been less ambiguous 8 like ambiguity but some of it made it seem like characters were making stupid decisions, it was hard to follow their motivations
