Hail Satan! Osgood Perkins delivers a gripping experience for those willing to step out of their comfort zone and dive into 101 minutes of devilish unease and despair. If Longlegs excels at anything, it’s the menacing and depressively suffocating atmosphere that grips you from the first shot and doesn’t let go until the credits roll. The film doesn’t offer a single scene that eases its tension – you might chuckle at a few of Nicolas Cage’s phenomenal moments, but it never undermines the film's oppressive tone. Perkins cements his place among the most intriguing genre filmmakers of today, with his masterful handling of atmosphere and mise-en-scène standing out in a crowded field. Kudos to Neon for their brilliant marketing campaign that smartly made Longlegs the horror event of the year. While some might feel let down by the hype, I approached it with caution and ended up very satisfied with what was delivered on the big screen.
