Directed by Osgood Perkins, who broke out with the ominous 'Longlegs,' his follow-up is jokier and less effective, piercing ...

The director and star of 'The Monkey,' talk inspirations, Stephen King, and deaths that were so absurd they had to be cut.

The actor pulls double duty as twins facing a deadly toy monkey in the Stephen King adaptation, which had a script that he loved but left him "slightly confused" because of its comedic tone.

The Monkey is a satisfactory comedic horror with many gruesome, blood-soaked kills and an obvious thematic through-line.

Director Osgood Perkins follows up 'Longlegs' with a giddy, gruesome, film that would make the King of Horror proud.
