In preparation for Longlegs, I had heard that the 1997 Japanese cult horror film, Cure, was a good accompaniment. Longlegs and Cure share many attributes, such as their atmospheric tone, and leaving audiences feeling unsettled by their ambiguous endings. Cure is an unnerving film, with its creepy sound design and chilling narrative, and is definitely a worthwhile watch for Longlegs fans. However, I just couldn’t shake this feeling that the Japanese film was actually just a serious version of the Monty Python sketch about the funniest joke in the world.
