I suspect it is meant to be 'rushed' and 'incomplete' to mirror the protagonists journey. Spoilers for other people reading comments and not seen the movie Within a very short space of time she finds out - her identity has been suppressed and life journey and choices deliberately ordained by her antagonist (her metaphysical daddy but not her physical one) - deliberately lied to by her mother - has to chose between physical family ties and metaphysical ones of her 'work' (which is not 'her's as she was preordained by DL to go where he wanted and do what he wanted - like the other girls and dolls) - kill her mum not because she was forced by Satan but forced by choice and in doing so 'choses Satan' by murdering her mother and 'being born again' and having a 'birthday'- her mother's death is her baptism - and still has a girl with a doll that she can't break (her gun not firing) which means Satan is still suppressing the girl despite her being alive, just like Lee has just woken up from It's meant to be in pieces so you spend time putting them back together, the same way her identity and history is also fractured and she would to. Was it perfect, no, and I'm still not sure it got all the pieces in place to make the end work ... but it is pretty close to coherent with some careful consideration by the audience. The chief's daughter's trophy missing a ball and it not being found (in the early bedroom scene with LH and the daughter) makes me wonder if that is used to cast the ball for her doll ... or if it is just LH picking up on 'missing parts' and 'metal balls'

I loved everything about the style and I thought specific characters were great but I struggled with the supernatural elements a bit. Unlike movies like Hereditary or any Stephen King novel where the supernatural is well-established, this felt like the Silence of the Lambs or Zodiac in the best way possible until the end, but then the semi-unresolved supernatural ending just left me a little irritated. I don't mean to compare it to those movies, though, since I know there are huge differences, but between the overpromising horror of the trailers and the creepy procedural feel of the actual movie, it just didn't stick the landing for me.

I think people are giving the movie way more credit than it deserved. I guess it's because we tend to lean on to "this must have been intentional, right?" but in this case, I really believe it wasn't. It was a bad movie that tried to take inspiration from its psychological horror predecessors, but ultimately failed to do so. Pretentious artsy scenes is not equal to uncomfortable scenes. It's just a horror comedy that tried to be a psychological thriller. And a painfully boring and slow horror comedy at that.

What we fear is really subjective because our lives are all different so I can understand that it didnt work for some people but Longlegs hits a part of my psyche that horrifies me. “Well you’re slim and you’re weak / You’ve got the teeth of the hydra upon you / You’re dirty, sweet, and you’re my girl.”

Yes that's what I thought while watching the movie, couldn't hold my laughter when I see Nic Cage role but apparently person sitting next to me expressed how disturbing it was for him to see me laugh. I told him u don't understand Nic Cage as I do.😅

In long legs, magic is used as a crutch for explaining the story, rather than a plot device that is interesting and moves the plot forward.

@steaming_mangos it's less 'magic' and more if Satan existed then how would it play out, the play or the movie is the 'how' not the 'why', DL is a how character who does the work, not a why character. He's as much a tool as the mother, the girls, and Lee. Maybe he chose to help Satan whereas they were forced

The use of mainly wide shots works so well because it feels like you are looking through someone's eyes (like the doll looking in the mirror or he murder through the doorway). It feels more personal? The murder through the eyes of the doll looking the the doorway could have had shots in the room of the murder showing it much more but it makes it so much scarier to stay in one POV for the entire thing. Love it

I was really excited for the reveal of longlegs after how much they hyped up his look so I was pretty disappointed by what I saw but I will say longlegs/nic cage was the best part of the movie. I completely forgot it was even nic cage (outside of him yelling in the car) but god did I want more of him in the best way. I didn’t necessarily *need* more of him I think the way they used him and the amount they used him was very purposeful and almost perfectly done but with a character and performance like that I’m always going to want more

Maika Monroe's character and performance is not even autism-coded so much as it is straigt up overtly autistic. More than that, it's one of the most true to life depictions of someone on the spectrum I've ever seen (I'm on the spectrum and work with ASD kids) on film. Whats more is that the plot spells out why she's so reserved. Its all on purpose. So when people say that she's "a slice of white bread," or that she's stale/bland/boring or what have you, it's a case of y'all just not getting it. Neither the intention, nor the pitch perfect execution. And that is not on the performance or the writing. People should really just consider how they engage with the material before writing off a character in this way
@f0xyLuv
2 ай бұрын
MAJOR SPOILER I think she doesn't even have to be autistic for her behaviour to make sense if you just consider that she's not only traumatized but also under control throughout most of the movie up until her mother shoots the doll. The behaviour of Ruby Carter before and after she receives her doll also seems to suggest this to be the case, and the fact that an actress is credited as "adult Ruby Carter" despite never being shown in the movie suggests that the cycle continues and Lee takes on her mothers role to save Ruby (would also make sense with the hydra theme - cut off one head and two grow back).

Technically speaking, this was a stunning movie. I think a lot of time directors feel like they have to compromise on the cinematography for the sake of the horror of it all. But this is one of those movies that shows that doesn’t have to be the case. The tension build up in this movie is genius. There were so many moments that I expected a cheap jump scare but none came. However, moments that I didn’t expect one, it would occur. The ending, however, was sooo disappointing. They spent the first two acts building the tension beautifully, playing with the paranormal but not making it clear which camp we were in: reality or paranormal. But the final act destroyed everything for me. I feel like “it was satan all along!” is such an overdone trope. I was truly expecting both a paranormal and logical explanation, one that would let the viewer decide based on their own beliefs. For instance, in Haunting of Hill House, while there are some paranormal things the house is also infested by black mold which can cause paranoia and hallucinations. I love books or movies or shows that allow both a realistic explanation if you so choose or a paranormal one. Truthfully, I was hoping for a realistic ending with paranormal elements. There’s an episode of Criminal Minds called “the Fox” in which the unsub breaks into family’s homes before they go on vacation, making the families act like he is the father and “plays house” with them before killing them. This is a route I was more so expecting with this movie, and, one, I honestly think would have been a more satisfying ending. I also think the marketing did this movie a disservice. When you build the hype this much, people are bound to be let down.
