Probably prequel to Longlegs. Having it be titled “Shortlegs” is the way to go.

Oh so they’re going the Bone Temple route? Sequel to a polarizing (but mostly well received) horror movie releasing in low-comp January? Bold strategy

Kinda checked out of the first one around the time Cage started singing about how the mother ought to be NICE or he’d have to come back to the house TWICE. It went on for several beats, none of them unnerving. Here and elsewhere the film kinda tiptoed too close to the tone of an SNL sketch.
Whole movie reminded me of Nelson Muntz showing off his yo-yo “skills” on The Simpsons (“*That’s* your trick?” is Milhouse’s reaction).

Big bomb incoming.
The first film had a perfectly executed marketing campaign to create hype. That can’t be recreated, and now that audiences know the character (which was shrouded in mystery) a sequel won’t be as novel or appealing enough to drive people to theaters.

I appreciate his commitment to the role as always but Cage’s character just did not work for me in this one at all.

I haven’t been so disappointed in a movie as I was with Longlegs. This seemed like it was going to be great, dragged a few friends as I love horror movies (even bad ones) and this looked like it was going to be good and was bad to the point where it almost stopped being fun for large sections.

This and weapons have two things in common, a goofy ass villain that ruins the movie.

I feel like Maika Monroe should be back for this if she’s not already. Her doing a new case with Longlegs still being in her mind is a good gimmick for a sequel

Is it a prequel?
Longlegs benefited from some really brilliant marketing but the films itself is just okay IMK.
