I found it hard to fully buy into Nicolas Cage as the scariest character in this film but that was no fault of his own. Great acting & full commitment per usual, I simply am too deeply entrenched in the Nicolas Cage lore.

The Monkey 2025
Kills were solid, but overall I was disappointed. A little too silly for me and it felt like it lacked a soul. I may have had unreasonably high expectations going in though. Longlegs clears.

Always have been fond of this one. People are quick to dismiss the quality of resolution without understanding it was intentional; much of the film was shot on a handheld, digital camera, which few filmmakers were doing at the time. That’s what provides the organic, grainy feel.
This film also made “zombies” run, for God’s sake, so it’s ahead of its time in that regard. The shift to a more human kind of evil in the back half might not be for everyone, but it is feasible given the context of the story (I’d kill those MFs, too).
