The real reason why Longlegs looks like that.

Summary Longlegs does not delve too deep into why its titular Nicolas Cage character looks like that, but the film's director has offered an intriguing explanation that makes a lot of sense. Long before Longlegs broke box office records, it generated immense hype with its brilliant marketing that sold it as one of the best horror films of the last decade without cleverly revealing too much about its storyline.

Like a typical clown, he also embodies the trickster archetype by luring unsuspecting people into his malevolent schemes and creating a sense of false innocence before unleashing his true sinister nature. Related What Longlegs' Revelation 13:1 Bible Verse Really Means Osgood Perkins' highly-acclaimed serial killer horror movie Longlegs mentions one iconic Bible verse multiple times, emphasizing its importance.
