Snakes are often associated with Satan. She is seeing the snakes as a flicker of his presence. You can also notice that every time she hears the "voice" and looks over her shoulder, that's when her intuition kicks in. For example, after hearing it, she grabs a book and knows exactly where to look for a clue. She's being guided.
Ahhh I see, interesting! Thanks for the intel. I’m assuming you were a big fan of the movie then? Have you seen anything else recently that you really enjoyed?
The devil is also in the car at the very start…..(that maybe a carseat lol) but also when harkour is coming out of the basement towards the end at the window you can see the devil as she leaves
@@WatchMitchWatch its hard to find cuz the site i watched it on is gone now but if you go to the scene where she wakes up from being unconscious and just watch her leave the place make sure to look at the windows at the back
That beginning scene was probably the most scariest thing lol. I yelped when he appeared and already i was terrified. That wasnt until he bends down that i legit screamed and held my heart lmao. Tbh, this was absolutely unnerving asl
The director himself told that Lee was no longer under the control of the devil after she shot her mum and her boss because 3 people needed to die. The fate of the little's however is questionable........
I swear that first jumpscare when he shows his face for a brief second was louder and quicker in the movie theater. Because that was the first time a jumpscare actually got me good. Let out a loud terrified yelp, and some people laughed lol
@@WatchMitchWatch It was very well done! Perfectly balanced spook wise. Ending felt rushed and I wanted more Nicolas Cage time, but other than that, pretty good! 😁
The beginning shot looks off, because longlegs is driving with lees doll. The black veil is over the dolls face and we’re watching from it’s perspective
I’ve been looking forward to other ppl reacting to this film, and you didn’t disappoint!!! Also did you notice the devil in the shadows? Here’s a few scenes that include him: behind longlegs in the woods, outside the library window, behind Lee harker when she was sitting on the ground and looking at crime scene photos (next to the American flag), behind young Lee harker in her room (during the whole backstory part of the movie) and in the corner of her old childhood room in the dark while she was looking in the box, and outside agent Carter’s door near the beginning of the end.

Oh literally, a bit of wee almost came out hahaha. I can’t remember the last time I jumped like that. Have you seen any other good horror movies lately?
I loved that longlegs is satanic, worships the devil, as he also refers to Lee as angel. Her last name is Harker. Like “hark the herald angel sing” shes an angel, he’s the devil 👏🏻
@@user-xj3ve7wt8k hahaha I did notice it but not a lot. My lack of reacting to do is not helping my argument though haha. 45:10 I definitely did not see that, I can’t lie
I absolutely loved Nicholas Cage in this movie. It may be my favorite of all his performances. And the opening scene? It made a little bit of pee come out. Also--and this is important--am I the only one who can see that Mitch is an absolute smoke show? Because DAYUM, son... 🤤
@@andrewkirk3047 he was really good! My favourite performance of his would probably be Leaving Las Vegas. Have you seen it? I little bit of wee definitely came out, there’s videos evidence. Hahaha stop it
By the way at the ending of the film with the words going backwards, that’s a symbolism of Satan when you would play music backwards, it would come across satanic
…is there a bigger red flag than a guy hanging a joker painting above their headboard? Because I can’t think of a bigger one. And if you think I’m being hyperbolic and overdramatic, you must not be personally familiar with who typically has to look at that painting and when they have to look at it. I get loving the character. I get being a fan. I don’t get forcing your romantic partner to stare at Jared Leto as the joker during sex.
IF by some miracle I find myself in your part of the world, I know not to creep behind you and say "cuckoo" and get my lights clocked out. YEP, certain parts of this movie ''fffd me. Saw it in the theater, - made it worse!
Hahahaha I might seem like I’d turn around swinging, but let’s be honest, I’d probably run away squealing 🤣 watching it at home alone with headphones on is a different experience cause someone could be creeping and you wouldn’t be able to hear anything. Got any recommendations on what you’d like to see me react to?
@@WatchMitchWatch Nice to see your channel getting on. IF you haven't seen them: Any of the 3 Rober Eggers movies, starting with "The Witch." "The Lighthouse" is an experience, but tough to chew on. "The Northman" is far more accessible, quite entertaining and likely the most accurate depiction of Vikings you can get, if you're into any of that. I simply cannot wait for his version of "Nosferatu." For something completely different, "Under the Skin" by Jonathan Glazer will blow your mind. He directed the recent "Zone of Interest." GOOD on you for finding a new editor! Hope you put up more!
I love this movie - but I can see why some might not - and it’s primarily down to the fact that having some knowledge as to how Perkins does his thing helps appreciate it more. He’s the master of ambiguity and leaving things up in the air - it’s effectively his calling card at this point - personally I love it, but it’s an acquired taste. Another thing he’s masterful at is dropping little hints here and there - and “Longlegs” has many - just going to go through a few: 1 - It takes about 5 minutes for the viewer to figure out that there’s something a little... odd, about Lee. She’s stilted, weirdly unemotional, awkward - quite frankly she comes across as someone on the spectrum. But there’s another little hint as to what the truth is... and it’s right there from the beginning. Notice how Lee walks - slightly hunched, stiff long strides, head down, arms basically clamped to her sides - her arms basically don’t leave her side for the entire first 2/3 of the movie - why is that? It’s a doll allegory - she walks like a doll being played with. At the end of the movie, we know why. Also - she’s much more animated after Ruth shoots the doll. 2 - Ruth isn’t handicapped, she’s obviously troubled, but she’s not handicapped - why is one of the defining traits of her character through the movie that she takes a long time to pick the phone up? The viewer is led to believe it’s a quirk... truth is she’s in the basement and it takes a while to get upstairs. The only real time Ruth shows any true mirth during the film is when Lee tells her that she doesn’t pray and haven’t prayed in a long time - she cackles, but then seems oddly proud of Lee for coming to that realization - we know why in hindsight. And about Ruth - and I’ll just say it: “Hail Alicia Witt” - the ending is horrific, in a tragic sense. It’s clear that her reasons for doing what she’s doing is no longer about keeping her daughter safe, or not entirely, that is. And she tells on herself when she says: “I’ll do it again, and again, and again - and that makes it right” (the notion of protecting Lee) - at some point Ruth stopped caring about the justifications and Lee became a giant permission slip for her to keep pleasing “Father” Which brings us to the ending: “Father” has a plan for Lee, Ruth, Longlegs - for everybody. And Longlegs tells Lee exactly what her endgame is in the interrogation when he tells Lee that he’ll “let her get started now” - up until that point Lee has simply been a pawn, Satan has moved her around on the board a little, but nothing indicative of what her fate is - until Longlegs tells her the aforementioned. Lee’s life has been like one of those toy cars that you wind up by pulling it backwards and letting it go - to her “birthday party” Lee’s fate was always to know the truth, about herself, about Longlegs, about her mother - and having to live with that knowledge and the visual of her mother’s body slumped on that couch - and that she’s the reason for it. It’s why the gun clicks when she tries to shoot the doll - the devil planned it that way - she’s meant to “savor” the moment - twist and burn, little girl, forever. “Hail Satan”
@WatchMitchWatch 80s classics like aliens 1 and 2. Spaceballs or big trouble in little China. Maybe some of the movies from the conjuring universe if you haven't seen them yet
@@ylizandrotoxenes1320 ooo okay cool. I haven’t seen spaceballs or big trouble. I saw alien and aliens once but it was ages ago and I don’t remember them really. Maybe I’ll watch them again and then react to the newest one?
I saw this in theaters opening night, and it was incredible! NGL, I've been coming down from a migraine all afternoon. But, I made myself sit down with my pasta and found your video recommended to me. Giggling at your reactions made my dreary Monday a little better. 🥹 If you're looking for more horror movies, the movie 'Hereditary' made me refuse to sleep in the dark for a solid week, and scary movies rarely affect me. So have fun and do with that what you will.😋 Other favorites are Annabelle (there's an entire franchise, Cobweb, The Conjuring franchise, IT (2017 & 2019), and The Black Phone. Just to name a fewwwww.

And about Ruth - and I’ll just say it: “Hail Alicia Witt” - the ending is horrific, in a tragic sense. It’s clear that her reasons for doing what she’s doing is no longer about keeping her daughter safe, or not entirely, that is. And she tells on herself when she says: “I’ll do it again, and again, and again - and that makes it right” (the notion of protecting Lee) - at some point Ruth stopped caring about the justifications and Lee became a giant permission slip for her to keep pleasing “Father”
Which brings us to the ending:
“Father” has a plan for Lee, Ruth, Longlegs - for everybody.
And Longlegs tells Lee exactly what her endgame is in the interrogation when he tells Lee that he’ll “let her get started now” - up until that point Lee has simply been a pawn, Satan has moved her around on the board a little, but nothing indicative of what her fate is - until Longlegs tells her the aforementioned. Lee’s life has been like one of those toy cars that you wind up by pulling it backwards and letting it go - to her “birthday party”
Lee’s fate was always to know the truth, about herself, about Longlegs, about her mother - and having to live with that knowledge and the visual of her mother’s body slumped on that couch - and that she’s the reason for it. It’s why the gun clicks when she tries to shoot the doll - the devil planned it that way - she’s meant to “savor” the moment - twist and burn, little girl, forever.
“Hail Satan”
Damn you've really done a deep dive. Good effort. What're some of your favourite movies?
I've missed that beautiful face 🎉
Ohhh stop it haha. I’m back! What else would you like to see me react to?
@WatchMitchWatch 80s classics like aliens 1 and 2. Spaceballs or big trouble in little China. Maybe some of the movies from the conjuring universe if you haven't seen them yet
@@ylizandrotoxenes1320 ooo okay cool. I haven’t seen spaceballs or big trouble. I saw alien and aliens once but it was ages ago and I don’t remember them really. Maybe I’ll watch them again and then react to the newest one?
She's from "IT FOLLOWS"
@@Waffleboy881 is that worth reacting to?
@@WatchMitchWatchits even better than longlegs
@@vvsparis ohh wow, that’s what we want to hear! Any other recommendations for me?
@@WatchMitchWatch gotchu bro! The Conjuring 2 (masterpiece), haunting of hill house (tv show but its a 10/10)
My interpretation of the ending is that she's the new Longlegs.
Oooo interesting. I can see that
This movie was total trash
@@xshaide interesting. Why do you say that?
I saw this in theaters opening night, and it was incredible! NGL, I've been coming down from a migraine all afternoon. But, I made myself sit down with my pasta and found your video recommended to me. Giggling at your reactions made my dreary Monday a little better. 🥹
If you're looking for more horror movies, the movie 'Hereditary' made me refuse to sleep in the dark for a solid week, and scary movies rarely affect me. So have fun and do with that what you will.😋 Other favorites are Annabelle (there's an entire franchise, Cobweb, The Conjuring franchise, IT (2017 & 2019), and The Black Phone. Just to name a fewwwww.
This is so sweet! I hope I helped your migraine. I was thinking about doing the It mini series with Tim Curry too. What do you think?
@@WatchMitchWatch it definitely provided a much needed distraction!
