I understand your point about it being scary and I largely agree.

I think the movie was great and did not need gimmicky and disingenuous headlines.

I was seriously f-ing freaked out by this movie. That opening scene with Longlegs scared the sh’t outta me, and that was the only jumpscare of the film i think. The rest of it was masterful build up with sounds. They made sure you heard every creak. I get why some people say it wasn’t scary. It isn’t Japanese original version Ringu or Ju-on scary, this one was psychologically deeply disturbing, unnerving and scary as hell

I think you’re spot on about the ending. I got the same vibe. But the one thing that really threw me off was how Lee ran out of bullets when trying to shoot the final doll. It felt so significant. By not shooting the doll was that just a set up for a potential sequel. What happens when the dolls are destroyed vs. not destroyed? That’s the confusion on my part. When Lees doll was shot all it seemed to do was knock her unconscious for a bit.

In regard to Lee's psychic powers- when her mother shoots the doll that looks like Lee, black smoke is seen coming out of the silver ball in the doll's head. Before Lee faints, black smoke is coming out of the back of her head. To me, this was her seemingly losing her psychic powers and connection to Longlegs. I think at the end, when she attempts to shoot Ruby's doll and runs out of bullets, I think she hesitates. I feel that she hesitates for a moment because she had such a deeply personal connection to Longlegs. She was the second survivor of his killings, with the first residing in a facility in a dormant state. Lee is like an exception- with her mother doing the physical killing in order to keep her alive. The other twist is also that he lived in her mom's basement. So while her memory is implied to be wiped, I think she still feels his presence despite that. I think her connection to him almost surpasses the power of whatever lives inside the silver spheres.

@@thedoorstosuccess2230 you literally just confirmed what I said... carter's daughter is gona grow up not entirely there because the doll is still intact, just like lee, so now Lee is gona have to be the nun and deliver the dolls to keep that girl alive. Oh and the one who called was the devil himself, you can even see his shadow following lee when she walks into Carter's house, because the devil wanted to set up Lee to take over and be the next Nun, her mom's time was done, she was getting old and to be fair she did tell lee about the "stuff" she never threw away, like Longlegs is dead because the mom had a big mouth, so the devil sent lee to Carter's house to witness AND get rid of her mom too, Lee is next in line to serve. Honestly it is as simple as it seems, but for some reason people have an issue suspending disbelief that much, i mean i kinda get it, the movie was pretty grounded until the 3rd act, but all the early marketing focused on supernatural shit, I definitely was expecting some real satanic shit to happen at the end, but i guess most people weren't

I predicted the plot within 15 minutes. It is unbelievably simple and unscary that all I can imagine that it’s a cheap Satan propo disguised as horror film. The film doesn’t manage to land on anything meaningful . 1.5 hours and no theme , just a demented bad ending that I saw coming from the first 15 min.

So... I am worried because I have not been a fan of recent films like Smile and Talk To Me really relying on themes of grief and or trauma to carry the film. So I am now concerned that I wouldn't like this. If this is closer to Smile than Se7en, I will likely skip it.

@FlickeringMyth 22 күн бұрын

I would say the film is between Talk To Me and Se7en. You spend an amazing time with the investigation and the cop drama just as much as exploring the insanity. Girl with the Dragon Tattoo but occult horror is how to look at it

Spoilers? The second the agents pulled up into the neighborhood at the beginning I knew homie was a dead man. This movie was extremely predictable, and worse: it actively gave its "secrets" away at each and every earliest opportunity which removed all suspense, or interest for that matter. The psychic schtick lasted exactly as long as the scenes it was introduced in, and was then almost completely ignored. The characters all seemed to be on the same quirkily overdramatic wavelength which made all the performances kind of blend together. The exceptions were the Detective Supervisor Man who was completely boilerplate, and NicC who was as ridiculous as his costume. When they ultrasounded the doll brain or whatever was a real eye roller too. I give it a 3.2/10 and a Hail Satan for the artsy cinematography and a couple of subtle, fleeting images. Save it for a cold and dreary night at home maybe? Or not.

"If you dont find this movie scary, it does not mean that it is not scary to other people in their opinion" Followed by "Youre probably like a 35 year old man with credit card debt, student loan payments, a girlfriend that hates you. I thought this was scary as hell!" Seriously, dude? Now, of one were to say that if this scared you, you're probably a 44 year old closet case queen living out your days in your mother's basment, reminiscing on the days you were the gloryhole empress, then we'd be wrong!

Okay the people who are saying this movie was bad are being dramatic. These are probably the same people who like the Avengers or Dune… which says a lot. This movie didn’t live up to the “scariest movie of the decade” but it definitely lives up to the most unsettling, fear inducing film in a long time. I see people saying “there wasn’t enough satanic stuff” but that actually works for this movie. If they had a scene showing Longlegs doing satanic rituals, it would’ve killed the vibe. 9/10 in my opinion. Taking into consideration all the garbage horror we’ve seen lately.

Saw this last night and it was garbage. I was so excited to see it, and so let down, even halfway through, this movie dragged harder than my dog across fresh carpet. Everyone else in the theater was also clearly disappointed. It closed out poorly, the construct and premise of the movie was so weak and hollow. 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.
