| 17 | !''Longlegs'' contains examples of: |
| 18 | * AspectRatioSwitch: Scenes alternate between widescreen and square. |
| 19 | * DiagonalBilling: Not quite diagonal, but Nicolas Cage and Maika Monroe both get equal "and" billing. |
| 20 | * ItsPersonal: The logline reveals that Longlegs' killing spree is personal to FBI agent Lee Harker in ''some'' way, but it doesn't reveal how. |
| 21 | * RedIsViolent: All of the film's marketing features bright red writing or backgrounds to invoke this association, as well as drawing attention to red costuming. |
| 22 | * SerialKiller: "Longlegs" apparently is one. |
| 23 | * SnowMeansDeath: So far, all of the external shots have shown snow on the ground to suggest that this SerialKiller story takes place in midwinter. |
