Osgood Perkins already thrilled, chilled, and horrified audiences with his film Longlegs, earlier this year. Now, you can experience the film in theaters once again from Wednesday, October 23rd to Hallloween, October 31st. Following the film, audiences will get an exclusive sneak peek at Perkins’ new film, The Monkey. You can check out the teaser trailer for that film right here.
In addition to the sneak peek, there’ll also be a recorded conversation between Perkins and The Monkey star Theo James. Tickets for the re-release go on sale today. Hailed as the “scariest film of the year,” LONGLEGS was written and directed by Perkins and stars Maika Monroe, Blair Underwood, Alicia Witt, and Nicolas Cage. To date, Longlegs has grossed an impressive $75 million at the U.S. box office, and over $100 million globally.
Perkins adapted and directed THE MONKEY based on the 1980 Stephen King short story of the same name. The film stars Theo James, Tatiana Maslany, Elijah Wood, Christian Convery, Colin O’Brien, Rohan Campbell and Sarah Levy. James Wan and Michael Clear of Atomic Monster produced the project with C2 Motion Group’s Dave Caplan, Brian Kavanaugh-Jones for Range Select, and Chris Ferguson for Odd Fellows. C2 also financed the film. THE MONKEY will be exclusively in theaters nationwide February 21st, 2025.
