Spoilers for "Longlegs" follow.

Making a horror film in 2024 about the nature of capital-e Evil is a lofty, impressive endeavor, especially given how many past classics of the genre set the bar so high. Horror movies are never in short supply, and the majority of them are (in one way or another) chasing the same classic high benchmarks, which means that a filmmaker has to find their own unique voice in attempting to play in the same sandbox as, say, "The Exorcist," "The Silence of the Lambs," "Se7en," and others.

Writer/director Osgood Perkins has been steadily developing just the right kind of unique voice within the genre ever since his debut film, "The Blackcoat's Daughter," and now his latest feature, "Longlegs," is his first masterpiece to date, combining a slew of his most effective tropes as an auteur with the perfect choice of material and collaborators. Each of his...

Nicolas Cage plays a sadistic serial killer in Longlegs, an upcoming horror movie directed by Osgood Perkins. The marketing builds suspense by obscuring Cage's face and emphasizing his disturbed voice. Cage's transformation and the role's impact have been praised by those involved in the film.

Nicolas Cage reveals his upcoming serial killer character in Longlegs to his co-star. From director Osgood Perkins, Longlegs is an upcoming horror film featuring the story of an FBI officer trying to use occult clues to track down a serial killer, played by Cage. In addition to Cage, Longlegs leading cast features Maika Monroe, Blair Underwood, Alicia Witt, Michelle Choi-Lee, and Dakota Daulby.

A new video from Neon shows Cage revealing his character to Monroe.

The video begins with text on screen that reveals that "the first time Maika Monroe saw Nicolas Cage as Longlegs was in the following scene.

As FBI agents mention the final book of the Bible, one calls it “Revelations.” Then “semi-psychic” Lee Harker (Maika Monroe) corrects them. “Revelation. Singular,” she says, eyes glued to the ground as she pivots past, but not toward, the camera. It’s the mid-1990s and unsolved Satanic killings have resumed in the Pacific Northwest. Harker has been assigned the case and, with a talent for cryptology and patterns, spends evenings examining the perpetrator’s Zodiac-like letters. But Longlegs is a cold film, and Harker doesn’t anticipate too many findings. Again: “Revelation. Singular.”

But that thing to uncover, whatever secret to decode, doesn’t really matter. Osgood Perkins’ latest opens with a flashback of Longlegs himself (Nicolas Cage) approaching a then-unknown little girl. From moment zero the audience has already seen the killer. Better yet, they’ve already observed him and generally know what to expect. It doesn’t help,...

Given how cinema is engulfed in the so-called Easter egg culture, it’s tempting to over-read the presence of glam-rock signifiers in Oz Perkins’s Longlegs. T. Rex’s “Bang a Gong (Get It On)” serves as both its epigraph and closing credits accompaniment. And an album cover of Lou Reed’s Transformer appears prominently above the eponymous menace’s mirror. But glam rock offers less of a skeleton key to the film than a guide on how to watch it.

The flamboyant early-1970s subgenre of rock music, which sought to upend rock’s hegemonic hypermasculinity with androgyny and gender fluidity, was a promise of liberation to its fans. How something begins its life isn’t how it must always present itself. So also goes Longlegs, a sturdily constructed horror film with a foundation sneakily built on shifting sands.

Perkins immediately harkens back to familiar ’90s horror thrillers, as...

The unease lurking in a quiet Pacific Northwest town plagued by a series of murders is a distant second to the fears churning inside the protagonist’s head in Longlegs. Writer-director Osgood Perkins’ serial killer chiller fully acknowledges a debt to The Silence of the Lambs in its chronicle of a young female rookie agent pulled into the FBI manhunt for a killer wiping out entire families. But the movie is also its own freaky trip, a darkly disturbing experience pulsing with an evil that’s unrelenting in its subcutaneous creepiness.

Technically, I guess this could be considered a spoiler, so if you continue reading, don’t complain. But the film allows Nicolas Cage to add another Hall of Fame entry to his gallery of psychos, one that won’t soon be forgotten. If you cast Cage in genre material like this and then only hint at his presence in the trailers,...

Nicolas Cage describes his role in Longlegs as a "warning label on nitroglycerin," promising a wild role. Cage taps into personal experiences from childhood to bring depth to his portrayal of a tragic killer. Producers and the director praise Cage's performance in Longlegs, hinting at a truly disturbing and transformative film experience.

Nicolas Cage teases his anticipated upcoming role in the horror film Longlegs. The Osgood Perkins-directed horror thriller tells the story of a serial killer who is being hunted down by an FBI agent who uncovers a series of occult-related clues that she must decode to stop the killer. In addition to Cage, Longlegs features a leading cast including Maika Monroe, Blair Underwood, Alicia Witt, and Michelle Choi-Lee.

Longlegs is set for release on July 12.
