NEON continues to spoil the audience with more promotional material for the highly anticipated horror project Longlegs of Osgood Perkins (also know as Oz Perkins, The Blackcoat’s Daughter), which stars Maika Monroe y Nicolas Cageas an FBI agent, and a serial killer, respectively.

The latest in the marketing campaign developed by the independent film company is a new teaser, lasting less than a minute, which follows up on the teaser released last week. This new trailer comes accompanied by a poster that NEON shared with the title “Dirty: Part One”, while the preview is titled “Dirty: Part Two”. Do you remember the poster shared a few days ago, in which Monroe saw herself from behind, sitting in a police room interrogating a woman? Well, the most recent poster puts us from the perspective of the person being interrogated. The trailer, for its part, presents Cage breathing and wheezing in a creepy way, before disturbing images of terror. He refers to him as “the man below.”
