Osgood Perkins, the son of the iconic Psycho star Anthony Perkins, has crafted one of the darkest, most nihilistic horror movies I’ve seen in years. A fellow critic turned to me as the credits rolled as asked me, “dude, did we just see a classic?” While it’s too early to say, I nevertheless found myself deeply shaken by this nightmarish thriller.

Seeing Nicholas Cage go from a demented revenge driven husband to a quiet reserved janitor fighter to a goofy interpretation of Dracula to a hideous insane killer just shows his insane acting skill

I thought it was ridiculous and stupid. Why would the FBI not have it on file that the same woman from “the church” visited with a doll before every family was killed?? Did they just not do their due diligence? Bc that sorta clue is usually glaring esp if the woman from the church is the main character’s mother. What a stupid movie. If this is the new bar for serial killer movies we need to step it tf up.

A strange nun arrives at your daughter's birthday party and presents a master crafted super creepy doll in their likeness saying that they have "won" it in a contest. Totally acceptable and believable. A 3-decade killing spree highly wanted serial killer is suddenly IN YOUR HOUSE at night! You, an FBI agent, contact no one, and decide to go to sleep after not finding him there. Right. Just so many functional inconsistencies and irrationalities with this movie.

Not to mention the fact that instead of crafting an interesting, complex explanation of how the killer was able to pull off the murders without leaving a trace, they just leave you with, “it was magic.” Fucking lazy. There was so much I liked about this movie but that explanation along with some of the plotholes you both mentioned (in addition to others) took a lot away from it for me.

Pretty sure they are happy in the sense that something different will happen. Traditionally kids in movies when out in peril usually get out fine and unfazed. So it’s hard for the audience to grasp any sort of belief in the peril when we always know they’ll be fine. It’s nice long legs will be switching it up. Most studious nowadays will never green light something if a kid dies in the movie. I’m just excited because it’s different and we could see something we don’t always see

I saw a pre-release screening and I liked it, but it didn't blow me away. Maybe 7/10? It's very creepy and has some great performances. On the other hand, it sets up an intriguing mystery which felt largely unresolved by the time the movie ended. There are several big twists which you may or may not see coming, but I kept waiting for some kind of "a-ha!" moment where the pieces came together and I felt a tiny bit cheated at the end.

This is exactly how I felt, it feels like they spent the first half of the movie setting up all kinds of plot threads to connect and then they tie them all together lazily and loosely and outside of the big twist alot of it feels cobbled together in the last chapter.

@eddysandland58 IT Follows was a masterpiece and her portrayal of that character was just enraptured, Ive thought. Well: she is in a film called 'Villains', which is on Netflix. Great movie. I have a few movies I've not seen by her, but she was great in that; with Kyra Sedgewick (also great) and Alexander Skarsgaård (whom I rate also) Maybe a good suggestion for you ! Enjoy. I've seen it 3 times in the last few years.

I’m so excited for this film it looks insane and your review just made me buy a ticket for Friday! Quick question, are you able to say if this film has any heavy scenes of animal cruelty? Asking because of the pet carrier and cat. I can handle heavy gore and humans getting hurt in horror films 😂 but animals is another story. I stop watching if I see animals get hurt, it’s just too much. Just a heads up on that part would be very much appreciated 🙏

It was really good. However. There are a few elements of the movie I wish they would have stuck to. For one, they never should have shown longleg's full face. Because when they do, he becomes more silly than scary, especially because you never actually see him commit any acts of of violence in the movie.

Saw this last night and it was garbage. I was so excited to see it, and so let down, even halfway through. Everyone else in the theater was also disappointed. It closed out poorly, the construct and premise of the movie was so poor. Cage has little screen time, at first the character presentation is great, but it wears thin quickly, especially when the dialogue escalates. "Hail Satan!" *Don't believe all these reviewers saying this movie is good, they are only doing it for likes. I actually encourage you to go see this steamy turd and make your own conclusions, good luck.

I gave it a 7/10. Very unnerving but not as scary as some people hyped. Very good plot but too many plot holes or forgotten elements for my liking. Also laughed at the scene where the flashed ball pythons under a red light knowing they were just chilling there as someone put a red light over them but I think that's just because I own a few and my first one will stare at me and pout if I don't take her out enough lol

I very much dislike bugs but cant help but laugh when they're put into sequences when they're literally just chilling there doing their own thing but putting a red light over it and flashing it fast suddenly making it menacing. Like they're just minding their business and then we take the clip and be like 'look at this horrifying thing' but its just a random Tuesday for the spider. Also laughed because they put rattle snake sounds over ball pythons, one of the friendliest most docile snakes that don't strike (constrict instead, though not even the largest ones can kill an adult even around the neck)) or have venom, let alone a rattle

I’m only taking a guess because it’s obviously in the trailer I hope it’s not a spoiler Look at the poster at 2:05 of this video Than the scene at 2:30 The same background same setting she has blood on her who was sitting in front of her ….Nicolas Cage character I believe this will be the beginning of the movie maybe the middle Hereditary shocking scene was that Charlie died at the beginning of the movie I think this will be the same case but it’s just a guess
