Longlegs

Lee Harker (White actor Maika Monroe) is a strong, smart, independent female FBI agent (not a common occurrence in the 1990s) who takes the lead in a serial killer case and finds new clues. She's ostensibly partly psychic, which she uses in one scene; otherwise, she relies on her smarts. Her immediate supervisor, Agent Carter (Blair Underwood) is Black and is a talented agent and capable leader. Another agent is played by Michelle Choi-Lee, an actor of Asian descent. Several other performers of color are seen in smaller or background roles. A minor character, the director of a psychiatric hospital, displays mannerisms that could be seen as reinforcing stereotypes about gay people.

Guns and shootings, sometimes at close range and sometimes fatal. Spurts, spatters, and pools of blood; blood-soaked clothes. A character bashes own head on table repeatedly, leading to lots of blood, a smashed-in nose, and eventually death. Decomposing bodies covered in maggots. A man chops people up with an axe; blood sprays. A woman is hog-tied. A woman is knocked unconscious with gas. Character chops off a cow's head. A person runs a knife over their own belly. Jump scares, threats, a figure lurking in the woods. Graphic descriptions of murder-suicides, a husband stabbing a wife 61 times, and more. Dialogue about someone jumping off a roof and dying of suicide. Dialogue about a woman bleeding profusely during birth. Gory crime scene photos. Violent screaming. Flashes of writhing snakes.

Three faded Playboy centerfolds hang on a wall, but no graphic detail is really visible.

Infrequent language includes "f--k," "t-ts," "goddamn," "bitch," "Jesus," "Jesus Christ," "stupid," "hell," and "screw."

A character casually drinking in a bar stands up too fast and appears tipsy. Cigarette smoking.
