  • Smile’ gave me the creeps in theatres. I hope ‘Longlegs’ delivers
  • @jmrosario3023
    Strong film. Being the “scariest movie of the decade” is a stretch. Not really what it’s going for anyway but it delivers the intrigue well.
  • @flafim
    The thumbnail for this video looks like NBC advertising an episode of the office.
  • @rileyisa45
    Got my tickets for next Friday (7/12) definitely excited for this one!
  • @77Creation
    Awesome review guys. And “Murder ASMR”…😂 Subbed.
  • @ribaldo188
    Hi! Following you since a couple of months. Really love the way you tackle each moviea and interviews. What about doing retro reviews of old movies every now and then?
  • @th3f4tbo1
    This movie genuinely made me uncomfortable. You nailed it with the concept of not being able to sit still. There was a moment where I tucked my hands in between my legs and the movie seat so I could feel like I was being held 😅
  • @Model_Roe
    I have heard Longlegs from those who have watched it is getting rave reviews but everybody says its pretty disturbing
  • @dylanlevine6745
    I love that you guys brought up Alan Wake because I thought the same thing!!! Especially when they brought out the flashlights, the lights felt potent just like in the games
  • my only exposure to longlegs before seeing it was seeing the trailer before midsommar in theaters and was absolutely horrified yet so confused. i’m so glad i didn’t see any of the other marketing so i had no expectations going in.
  • Good job lads, cheers. New sub 100% brought here by Longlegs. I haven't been this excited for a movie since Hereditary.
  • @nickyrchnwatch
    That’s make me so hype about this film !! I can’t wait to see it in theaters on August, 1st in Thailand !!
  • I can’t remember the last time I saw a movie twice during its opening weekend.
  • @JoRN1222
    I hope it comes to my area. If it does, I am there. I love Oz Perkins.
  • @eronj5824
    You guys are some of my favorite podcasters !!
  • @penyuwan
    It really does have parallel with 'Alan Wake 2' even the sound designs too.
  • i absolutely loved this film. i bought every thing it sold to me, totally wrapped me in.
  • @jasonkh4
    Y’all just hyping me up to see this even more, but I leave tomorrow to go out of town for work for a month, I just hope it’s still going strong in theatres when I get back 🙏🏼
