REVIEW: Longlegs (2024 Horror/Thriller Movie) - Starring Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage

"Longlegs" is a 2024 American horror thriller directed by Osgood Perkins, featuring Maika Monroe as FBI agent Lee Harker and Nicolas Cage as the enigmatic serial killer, Longlegs. Set in the 1970s and 1990s Oregon, the film follows Harker's investigation into a series of gruesome family murder-suicides marked by satanic messages. With possible clairvoyance, Harker uncovers connections between the victims, each having a 9-year-old daughter with a birthday near the murder dates, forming an occult symbol. The discovery of a doll with a malevolent orb inside intensifies the supernatural elements, hinting at Longlegs' sinister influence and a personal link to Harker.

Perkins crafts a visually striking and atmospherically rich film, blending eerie suburban settings with chilling narrative twists. While Monroe and Cage deliver compelling performances, the film's reliance on mood and Cage's intense portrayal might overshadow its horror elements, leaning more towards a dark police procedural. Despite its occasional lack of traditional scares, "Longlegs" successfully creates a lingering sense of dread, making it a haunting and memorable thriller.
