As we’ve seen in the past Nicolas Cage has an uncanny ability to literally disappear into a role like few actors are capable but usually if you stop a film like Pig, Adaptation or Dream Scenario you can still easily recognize him. But what happens when you cover all traces of Nicolas Cage with heavy prosthetics, ratchet the insanity up to 11 and turn him into the creepiest villain we’ve ever seen him play? We’ll find out as we take on the 2024 Ari Aster produced A24 horror film Longlegs
A semi-psychic detective is tasked with solving a series of unexplainable murders committed by someone leaving cryptic letters at the scene while seemingly having no connection to the victims. What follows is a creepy lurid decent into the world of the occult, satanic ritual and, of course, murder.
Longlegs stars former professional kiteboarder and It Follows star Maika Monroe, multi-hyphenate star of film, television and theater and Agents of Shield regular Blair Underwood, Orange is the New Black/Justified regular who made her acting debut as that creepy ass kid in David Lynch’s version of Dune Alicia Witt, and of course, a man we’d all unwittingly do the dark bidding of any day of the week, Academy Award winning actor who awakens the Mr. Downstairs in all of us Nicolas Kim Coppola better known as Nicolas Cage.
