Expected in theaters on July 10, the horror thriller “Longlegs” is starting to make waves in Uncle Sam’s country! The film with Nicolas Cage would be a “new Silence of the Lambs.”
Expected for release on July 10 in cinemas in France, the horror thriller Longlegs stars Maika Monroe, revelation from It Follows, and the indescribable Nicolas Cage. The story follows FBI agent Lee Harker, a talented new recruit.
The latter is assigned to the unsolved case of an elusive serial killer. The investigation, bordering on the occult, becomes even more complex when she discovers a personal link with the ruthless killer whom she must stop before he takes the lives of other innocent families.
Directed by Oz Perkins, the feature film has already been seen by a lucky few in the United States and the feedback has been very positive!
Nightmarish Nicolas Cage
“I had the chance to see Longlegs, and without exaggeration: it is perhaps the best horror film of 2024. It is Oz Perkins’ masterpiece. Maika Monroe gives a unique performance and fabulous, and Nicolas Cage is nightmarish. Perhaps the scariest first 10 minutes of all time.believes Bill Bria of SlashFilms.
Collider’s Perri Nemiroff is already certain that Longlegs is her “favorite Oz Perkins movie. The teasers sell it well. The mystery and unsolved case of the serial killer is utterly fascinating and immensely disturbing. I have never seen anything like it. It is truly unique in his type, but he made me think of Sinister ; That’s a big compliment considering it’s one of my favorites.”
The new Silence of the Lambs?
“Get ready everyone, because Longlegs is a real gem. His absolutely rancid, cursed vibes scared me so much that I was afraid to walk into my dark hotel room. Maika Monroe is stunning and Nicolas Cage is disturbing. Oz Perkins is in great shape. Silence of the Lambs contemporary, in my opinion”says Mary Beth McAndrews of Dread Central.
Matt Donato, from Bloody Disgusting, is also very enthusiastic: “Damn goodnight. Oz Perkins has crafted an exceptionally dark and evil investigative thriller. It’s so violently evil. A film that stays in your thoughts, under your skin and in the pit of your stomach long after it’s over. best of Perkins.”
The terror in your bones
“Longlegs is a hypnotic horror film that swallows the viewer whole. Haunting and seductive, the work makes you feel the terror in your bones. Oz Perkins is breathtaking; the actors, including Nicolas Cage and Maika Monroe, are in “Longlegs is one of the best films of 2024.”confides Dolores Quintana of Fandango.
“Longlegs is unlike anything I could have anticipated. It is unsettling and disturbing, never giving the audience a respite. Maika Monroe and Nicolas Cage deliver remarkable performances, but Alicia Witt steals the show. Oz Perkins doesn’t miss never his move, and I can promise you that you are not ready”insists Shannon McGrew.
After his notable performances recently in Renfield or Dream Scenario, Nicolas Cage is getting back on track after a long crossing of the desert punctuated by mischief.
“Oz Perkins is pretty strong in the horror genre at the moment. He’s made some really good films. Gretel & Hansel was great. I play a character who hears voices. It’s a bit like a possessed Geppetto who makes dolls “had indicated Nicolas Cage at the microphone of Fangoria when the project is announced in November 2022. Longlegs will be released in theaters on July 10.
