Crucially, the toy monkey doesnt seem interested in giving anyone in the movie a peaceful death.
Perkins goes the route of giving us completely unhinged deaths, which heavily plays into the ratings description.
There are nearly no jump scares and very few creepy moments.
I cant stress enough how violent and goryThe Monkeyis.
In that regard,The Monkeyleaves no stone unturned.
UnlikeThe Monkey, Perkins didn’t adaptLonglegsfrom a short story or book.
