Nicolas Cage’s Horror Masterpiece Longlegs Secures Perfect Rotten Tomatoes Score and Rave Reviews

Nicolas Cage’s upcoming horror movie has debuted to a flawless score on Rotten Tomatoes, with critics lauding it as the "scariest film of the decade."

The critical acclaim and admiration for Nicolas Cage's upcoming horror movie Longlegs continues as the flick lands a stellar Rotten Tomatoes score.

That’s right, Longlegs has debuted to a perfect 100% score on Rotten Tomatoes, proving the overwhelmingly positive first reactions true. Although the movie has not yet been released to the public, it has had many private screenings, and those who have managed to catch it so far have been absolutely astonished by director Osgood Perkin’s unsettling creation.

Matt Donato from Inverse notes that Longlegs is Perkins’ trademark aesthetic at its peak, lingering in your thoughts, under your skin, and in the pit of your stomach well after it’s over. Meagan Navarro from Bloody Disgusting comments that Longlegs immerses you thoroughly in evil's repulsive, discomforting nature.

Others have already crowned it the best movie of the year in the past 10 years. EJ Moreno from Flickering Myth describes Longlegs as the pure horror experience fans have been waiting for, easily the scariest film of the decade. Lastly, Courtney Howard from Fresh Fiction sums it up perfectly, likening it to a freak-fest forged in Hell and brought into our world as a dark gift.

Starring Nicolas Cage as a dangerously unhinged serial killer, Longlegs follows horror hall-of-famer Maika Monroe as rookie FBI recruit Lee Harker, who, in a fashion reminiscent of Silence of the Lambs, gets assigned to an unsolved murder case as her first task. However, things take an unexpected turn when the agent discovers a personal connection to the case, prompting her to quickly solve a series of occult clues to end a violent spree.

Written and directed by The Blackcoat’s Daughter’s Perkins, Longlegs stars Cage, and It Follows’ Monroe, as well as Chilling Adventures of Sabrina's Kiernan Shipka, The Walking Dead’s Alicia Witt, and American Crime Story’s Blair Underwood, among others.

The film Longlegs is scheduled for a theatrical debut in the United States on July 12, but the date of its premiere in the United Kingdom remains undetermined.
