Longlegs | Official Trailer
Chief among them? The freakish title character easily ranks among Nicolas Cage ’s strangest roles ever. But Cage’s creepy, enigmatic Longlegs, with a squeaky voice and swollen face splotched by white paint, is on another messed-up level.
Neither shield-your-eyes torture porn nor a by-the-book slasher flick, “Longlegs” is powered by an ever-present sense of dread that never lets up, an engrossing story and fascinating characters. Its frightful imagery lingers in the mind for days, whether you want it to or not.Barbenheimer is dead — and Hollywood is back to making lazy sequels
However, whereas Clarice Starling was shrewdly able to coax information out of Dr. Hannibal Lecter, Special Agent Lee Harker is a little bit psychic. The deaths in each instance were at the hands of a father, who, authorities assume, was instructed by Longlegs to do it.Perkins’ film is full of left-field surprises, made more unexpected by its blend of genres. Set in the morally dicey 1990s, it’s a bit rural police procedural, a la “Twin Peaks,” but its supernatural and religious elements add shades of Brian De Palma’s “Carrie.” As does Perkins’ artful shots.
