Perkins continues to distinguish himself as a modern horror director. Longlegs is more of a police procedural, but with some very twisted and gruesome scenes that show Perkins' affinity with the horror genre. I wasn't entirely happy with the '90s setting, but he's an undeniable talent and there are some great scenes here. Monroe and Cage are also excellent, giving their characters something unique. The presentation is refined, Perkins builds up the tension perfectly and the film delivers when it needs to. The dreary setting and focus on the investigation keep this film from receiving an even higher score, but kudos to Perkins for delivering another great movie. Read all
