I was just telling my girl this. I actually think the longlegs character is really solid and has crazy potential if it was done right.

No. If a good story which actually makes sense and which is told in a compelling way is important to you, then this movie is complete utter trizzash.
If you're a really big Nicholas Cage fan and would like to see a glimpse of how he could still deliver a great performance and how he could've had a great role if the writing had been at least decent, then I guess the few minutes of him in the movie would be worth it.
We could probably assign writing one scene of a movie to a Coli poster each and write up a better movie over the weekend if we really wanted to. I'm just saying.

This had the makings for a Good movie but felt like a project put together to get funding for something bigger. Like I don't feel this was made as lets make a good start to finish movie lol,
I have questions.
1) Was Lee's house the first one he visited?
2) If her mother didn't make the deal what was his plan?
3) Where was this dude before he was living in their basement?
4) Why did the devil want to just kill little girls?
5) Did the devil tell him what their birthdays were?

I'm sorry this would have been a better movie if the Devil wasn't the cause. It's like why are they doing this? "Evil." That's kinda boring.
The cause is fine, it's how they went about it which was the problem. They were too damn literal.
They expedited all the exposition, and it's the reason why whatever mystique and dread they had created was undermined with shyt the "Hail Satan!". They even doubled down with that shyt right at the end, had me screwing up my face and everything. You can hammer it with allusion, but the moment you bring out a hammer where you're telling the audidence what it is, well, that nail ends up going in sideways.
It's why I always say - the monster under your bed is always scarier if you never get to see it.
Which is why less is more in horror films; the more you force the viewer to use their imagination (with atmosphere and subtext) the more they will draw on their own fears, whereas literal images (or in this case, literal dialogue) don't have nearly the same effect.

yall gon learn these critics suck off any old movie to get premiere tickets for future releases. find individual critics you rock with whose taste generally aligns with yours and even then take their opinion with a grain of salt
Ahh yes. They all wanted seats on the ozgood Perkins train
