Plot

'Longlegs' tells the story of a new FBI agent with great potential, Lee Harker, who is assigned a case involving a serial killer who leaves clues of occultism. "Longlegs," the nickname of the criminal in question, challenges logic as well as morality while misleading the agent with his macabre and unexpected rituals.

But what seems like an ordinary case becomes personal for Harker when she discovers an unexpected connection to the killer through her investigations. She will have to do everything possible to try to stop him before he commits another heinous murder.

The film is a psychological thriller and horror written and directed by Oz Perkins ('Gretel & Hansel'), ('NOP'). The plot is set in the 1990s and stars Maika Monroe ('God's Bullet'), ('The Guest') as Lee Harker and Nicolas Cage ('In the Shadow of the Moon'), ('Blind Fury') as Longlegs.

The main cast also includes actors and actresses Alicia Witt ('I Care a Lot') as Ruth Harker, Blair Underwood ('Quantico') as Agent Carter, and Kiernan Shipka ('Chilling Adventures of Sabrina') as Carrie Anne. It is produced by Saturn Films (Cage's production company) and distributed by NEON.
