Did you ever ever ever in your longlegged life

It’s me again, surfacing from deep beneath the waters of dire circumstance, to alert you all to some more spooky synchronistic voodoo currently emanating from Hollywoodland. So spooky in fact, and so directly related to the contents of Purple Reined that I absolutely had to stand up and say something.
Purple Reined concerned itself with events and movies released summer 2023 in anticipation of Wonka’s Christmas release. Now we endure the heat of summer 2024, and a new slate of programming is on offer. Purple Reined examined how the franchise players of Willy Wonka were all temporally synchronous with each other and with the then-upcoming release of Wonka. Could a similar phenomenon be at work here in 2024, though the players and franchise be different?
Here’s how this thought began. Purple Reined spent a lot of time examining Elon Musk’s 19th birthday—6/28/1990—which was also Willy Wonka’s 19th birthday, and the day immolation-victim Robbie Middleton was born, among other things. The piece also emphasized the time-interval 1776 weeks—the time between the Gene Wilder film and the Tim Burton/Johnny Depp production on 7/10/2005. Now look at the date: we are exactly 19 years out from July 2005, which means that the date 7/11/2024 is exactly 1776 weeks since Elon Musk (and Willy Wonka)’s 19th birthday! Without knowing anything else, Crypto-K would thus expect a similar major impact in the media environment on this day.
But wait, “this day” is today! So we can just go look at our local multiplex: is there something major happening at the movies this weekend?
You bet yr bottom freakin’ $:
Two films appear in theaters in tandem on 7/11/2024. Fly Me to the Moon is a light-hearted romantic comedy about a government agent working with a public relations firm to fake the Apollo Moon landing, while on the flip-side, Longlegs is a horror movie being sold as the kind to cause physical illness in the viewer out of sheer dread and stress—a marketing technique pioneered by William Friedkin in The Exorcist. There will be walk-outs. There will be pass-outs during this “occult serial killer” psychodrama starring Nicolas Cage and Maika Monroe, directed by Osgood Perkins (the son of horror icon Anthony Perkins)—all the while in the theater across the hall, a different audience will be having a romantic funny time with Channing Tatum and ScarJo while subconsciously ingesting the idea that the Apollo Moon landings were faked by the government for benevolent reasons.
Now, the Programmers that Be want you to think there’s no connection, but we’re here to tell you without even having seen either of them yet, these two films, Longlegs and Fly Me To the Moon, are linked inextricably. In 2023 we had the Barbie and Oppenheimer odd-feature: Barbenheimer. Supposedly an accidental pairing, the two films together reified the spell of the BOMB/SHELL which began eternally recurring in July 1946 with the Bikini Atoll nuclear tests followed shortly by the debut of the bikini swimwear. This magickal working proved a smashing economic success in 1946 and again in 2023. People consumed the Barbenheimer double-feature for the memes. You would think that the suits might have wanted to re-capture that magic one year later. But despite the most elaborate movie marketing campaign in years for Longlegs, no such campaign exists for going to see Longlegs in tandem with Fly Me to the Moon. Maybe there should have been.
Without having seen either of them, how do we know that Fly Me to the Moon syncs up with Longlegs? One of them is about faking the Apollo Moon missions, while the other seems to be about a Satan-worshipping serial killer. Longlegs director Osgood Perkins—Oz, together with his brother Elvis, are the sons of Anthony Perkins and wife Berry Berenson. This makes Oz Perkins a scion of Hollywood royalty, the proverbial high-grade nepo-baby. He has made it clear in interviews that Longlegs is in fact an ode to his wild family history. Seems a little strange that the ode to said family is a movie about a freaked out Satanist serial killer, but that’s neither here nor there. From all indications Longlegs is Oz Perkins’ most ambitious and daring effort yet as a filmmaker, as well as what might be Nic Cage’s most daring effort yet as an actor—and it releases 1776 weeks after Elon Musk and Willy Wonka’s 19th birthday.
There are other facts about Oz Perkins which stand out like a lite-brite in the context of Longlegs releasing on the same day as Fly Me to the Moon. The first concerns his mother, Berry Berenson, the model and actress who just so happened to be a passenger on American Airlines Flight 11 when it was hijacked by Mohammed Atta’s crew and flown into the North Tower of the WTC on the morning of 9/11/2001, kick-starting the millennial-mass Pyramid Stargate Ritual. Berry Berenson, who died on Flight 11, was the sister of Marisa Berenson, another model/actress known to many as the star of Stanley Kubrick’s Barry Lyndon. The canonical story is that Kubrick acquired the Zeiss Planar lenses used by NASA on the Moon in order to film the candlelit nighttime scenes of his Barry Lyndon just because he knew the right people, and how to get things. Conspiracy theorists might naturally assume that Kubrick was gifted those lenses as one of the perks of the ‘job’ that was filming a realistic-looking Moon landing. Regardless, it means that Oz Perkins’ aunt Marisa was filmed for Barry Lyndon by Kubrick with the same model of lens used by Apollo 11 to film the surface of the Moon, while her sister (his mother) Berry Berenson (note the repeating bear) on Flight 11 was among the first people said to have died sacrificially on 9/11/2001.
Before all that though, Berry Berenson married Anthony Perkins and had two sons, the first of which they named Osgood after his grandfather. Little Oz Perkins, who would grow up to be an actor and film director, was born on 2/2/1974. That can be written as 2/2/74, notable since 2274 = 2037 + 237 (it’s also the year of Logan’s Run). But most remarkable of all is the fact is that the 2/2/74 birth of Oz Perkins arrived exactly 237 weeks after the Apollo Moon landing itself.
Note the symmetry in the fact that Apollo 11 landed on the Moon, and Flight 11 first hit the North Tower. Why would NASA’s Moon mission overlap symbolically with the events of 9/11/2001? Anyway, Berry birthed Oz 237 weeks after the Eagle landed, and then she died on Flight 11. To quote a line from Jordan Peele’s NOPE, a film in which Oz Perkins has an acting credit, “what’s a bad miracle? they got a word for that?”
It’s this key background ingredient that makes the coincidence of Oz Perkins’ Longlegs hitting theaters in tandem with Fly Me to the Moon—1776 weeks since Elon Musk and Willy Wonka turned 19—more accurately termed an explosive synchronicity. Again, in interviews Perkins has said that Longlegs is about his wild family history. It will be interesting to see what exactly he means by that, especially in the light of all of this.
There’s more to unpack when it comes to the Perkins dynasty, but in the interest of brevity our gaze will shift now to the film’s forward facing star, Nicolas Cage. Like Perkins, Cage also descends from Hollywood royalty, being the nephew of Francis Ford Coppola and all.
So we decided to check how old he will be on the day Longlegs is released upon the unsuspecting public—the official release date is 7/12/2024, on which day Nicolas Cage turns exactly 60 years, 6 months, 6 days old. What’s amazing about this, beyond the apparent 666, is that if you’ll recall part 4 of Purple Reined, this was the same age as Johnny Depp was on Wonka’s official release date.
Yes, Johnny Depp (the Elder Wonka) was 60 years, 6 months, 6 days old when Wonka released in 2023—and recall that the mid-point of that was 9/11/1993—8 years before 9/11/2001. All of this was reported in detail in Purple Reined, so to find now in the follow-up that Cage’s age approaching this new movie is the same as Depp’s age approaching that movie—meaning that Longlegs hits theaters the same length of time after Wonka as Nicolas Cage was born after Johnny Depp—it’s beyond weird, and smacks of either highly specialized occult human activity or the uncanny intentions of some kind of extra-human intelligence.
If you read Purple Reined, you’ll remember that the mid-point of Depp and Wonka revealed an incredible example of so-called 9/11 “predictive programming.” Hence we are compelled to find the mid-point of this new, similarly 666-coded span of time from Cage’s birth to Longlegs.
So we do, and it’s 4/10/1994.
Here’s where it gets a little spooky. A look at that date reveals it as the death day of writer John O’Brien, who committed suicide just two weeks after learning that his first novel would be adapted into a Hollywood film. One might think this would be something to celebrate, but it seems Mr. O’Brien thought differently, and decided not to stick around to see what Hollywood would do to his work.
The name of that novel by John O’Brien? Leaving Las Vegas—also, you might realize, the name of the film for which Nicolas Cage would win Best Actor at the 68th Academy Awards. Yes, the mid-point of the 60 year, 6 month, 6 day span between the birth of Nicolas Cage and the wide release of Longlegs (in which Cage plays a Satanist serial killer), was the day the author of Leaving Las Vegas—which is both a novel and O’Brien’s suicide note—committed suicide. To say that Nicolas Cage reaped the benefits of O’Brien’s suicide by being the man paid to re-enact it all on screen might imply some uncharitable assumptions about Cage and his relationship to all of this. It’s most likely that this is all just one big—BIG—coincidence. But it also might be that coincidence is how angels and demons like to tell their stories.
If your taste for Big Coincidence is strong enough, then here’s a little more for your plate. John O’Brien’s death on the Cage/Longlegs mid-point 4/10/1994 was preceded by his birth on 5/21/1960, a day which also saw the arrival of the infant form of a real-life serial killer, Jeffrey Dahmer.
Both Jeffrey Dahmer (left) and John O’Brien (right) were born on the same day (5/21/1960), and both died in the year 1994—Dahmer lived for 33 weeks longer than O’Brien, come to find out. O’Brien suicided himself just 2 days after Kurt Cobain’s body was found—this is to say that Dahmer’s death on 11/28/1994 actually came an even 237 days after the alleged suicide of Kurt Cobain. You’re free to draw your own sync-conclusions with that little digression, but for now let’s just note the overlapping real-life and fictional serial killers present in Dahmer and Longlegs intertwined with the “death of the author” of Leaving Las Vegas (born the same day as Dahmer) on the precise mid-point between Cage’s birth and the release of Longlegs (in which he plays the fictional Dahmer-like (Satanist) serial killer). Oh, what a tangled web we weave (or leave, as the case may be).
Also of note: Dahmer’s birthday-twin, the writer John O’Brien got an early career break with a gig on what would become episode 37 of the Nickelodeon TV kids cartoon Rugrats. Each episode of Rugrats contains 2 separate stories about the exploits of a cadre of talking toddlers. Credited under the pen name Carroll Mine, O’Brien’s story was called “Toys in the Attic,” wherein baby Tommy and his older cousin Angelica have to go spend a weekend at Tommy’s very Jewish grandparents’ house. The 1990s were a golden age for TV kids programming, with seemingly few restrictions placed on a whole horde of young eager animators, and because of that, shows like Rugrats, Rocko’s Modern Life, and Ren and Stimpy still hold up today, demonstrating a surprising maturity, literate humor, and charm absent from, well, most everything on TV nowadays. It’s likely you didn’t know that the suicidally depressed author of Leaving Las Vegas wrote an episode of Rugrats, but now you do. According to his wiki, O’Brien was “disgusted” with the editorial changes made to his script, so who knows what authentic glimpses into his mind remain there, but it’s a good bet that at least one line made it into the final version, and that’s when Tommy’s grandpa tucks them in by saying, “good night, sleep tight, don’t let the dybbuks bite!” Tommy then asks Angelica, “what’s a dybbuk?” to which she replies, “it’s like a ghost, only scarier.”
Officially, the Judaic concept of a dybbuk is “a malicious possessing spirit believed to be the dislocated soul of a dead person. It supposedly leaves the host body once it has accomplished its goal, sometimes after being exorcised.”
“Possession” is one of the key tropes of Crypto-K, in some part due to the twin films called Possessed, both of which star Joan Crawford and the number 237. Specifically, Possessed (1931) features the number 2037 on a passing train, while Possessed (1947) shows 237 as the visible address of a diner—at the same timestamp in both films. Put them together, and remember that 2037 + 237 = 2274 — and that Oz Perkins birth on 2/2/74 came 237 weeks after the Moon landing.
Just who is possessing who, here?
Reader, most of what you have read so far was written on 7/10/2024 or before. Waking up on 7/11/2024—the fated day—this author was immediately presented with two different wild synchronicities relating to everything that had been written up til now. We went to bed thinking about dybbuks because of the contents of John O’Brien’s Rugrats episode, and ready to write about them today. We woke up to find a most helpful reminder from the intrepid journalist Whitney Webb that Leslie Wexner, the billionaire patron of the Arts (and when they say the Arts they just mean Jeffrey Epstein), actually told New York magazine in the 8/5/1985 issue that he has a dybbuk of his own, an “inner demon” which “pokes and prods” at his inner being, driving him to acquire more and more power and influence. They really do just come out with it all the time, don’t they?
Anyway, we were able to stew on notions of dybbuks and John O’Brien’s death and possibly his ghost haunting (or powering) Nicolas Cage for all of about 30 seconds before our thumb contracted and we scrolled to the algorithm’s next offering, which was the death of Shelley Duvall, a Kubrick alumnus of the highest degree, one of my and probably most people’s favorite human beings of all time. Today, of all days, the day we had literally circled on our Crypto-K calendar and announced as being a day of note in this wider matrix (see this tweet on 7/4)—the same day Fly Me to the Moon and Longlegs appear in theaters—because it is 1776 weeks since Elon Musk and Willy Wonka turned 19—we have lost Shelley Duvall, who among other things played Wendy Torrance in The Shining, a movie supposed to have been about the Moon landing!
Hold up. Longlegs? That’s Shelley Duvall! Being Olive Oyl, known for her LONG LEGS! Oh boy. They really had sense of humor with this one, didn’t they? Here’s a peek at a crude sketch of this arrangement. On the left, the drawing as it existed yesterday. On the right, the drawing as it exists today.
Somehow the death of Shelley Duvall—RIP, and may she find eternal peace, along with all of us, eventually—just fits right in there, like finding the perfect piece to add to a massive cosmic puzzle.
In the drawing, the diagonal line from ‘Elon 19’ to 7/11/2024 is 1776 weeks. The mid-point of that—7/5/2007—saw the release of the debut mixtape from Nikki Minaj, who nowadays is known as the “Queen of Rap.” A sort of royalty, in other words. The tape was called Playtime is Over, which might have been dialogue from the public domain Willy Wonka before his Oompa-Loompa doused Robbie Middleton with gas, the rugrat who was born on Elon’s 19th birthday 888 weeks before Minaj’s mixtape and, we know now, 1776 weeks before Shelley Duvall died.
But see that little X there on the chart? That is the mid-point between Elon’s 19th and Playtime is Over, or in other words 444 weeks after Willy Wonka and Elon turned 19, and 1332 weeks before 7/11/2024—and that’s special because 1332 = 666 + 666. We go to the trouble of pointing this out for two reasons. The day 666 + 666 weeks before today’s release of Longlegs and the death of Shelley Duvall—12/31/1998—saw one birth and one death of fascinating synchronistic relevance.
Firstly, on 12/31/1998, Hunter Schafer was born. Schafer is another member of this new crop of young performers who came to fame through the show Euphoria, a list of now near-household names which includes Zendaya, Sydney Sweeney, Angus Cloud (whose death was covered in Purple Reined part 3), and the most recent Elvis, Jacob Elordi. Uniquely, Hunter Schafer is a trans woman, and also has long legs, not unlike the gangly Shelley Duvall. Yes, the day that Euphoria’s trans star and one of TIME magazine’s “100 emerging leaders who are shaping the future” turns 666 + 666 weeks old is both 1) the release date of Longlegs and Fly Me to the Moon, and 2) the death day of Shelley Duvall. It sure seems like that means something anyway.
The day before Hunter Schafer was born saw the synchronistically relevant death: on 12/30/1998, an obscure British television actor named George Webb passed into the next density. Aside from the fact that his initials were GW (and hence a 237), the reason we mention him is due to the role for which he was most well-known, on the British sitcom Keeping Up Appearances as Daddy, the father of Hyacinth Bucket—note that Bucket was also the surname of Charlie from Willy Wonka, and in Greek mythology, Hyacinth was the (homosexual) lover of Apollo! So we have a GW actor known for playing Daddy die 666 + 666 weeks before Longlegs is released—and his name ‘Webb’ invokes a spider even—there is your Daddy Longlegs, folks.
So if Shelley Duvall died 666 + 666 weeks after Hunter Schafer was born, what’s the mid-point? Using ParanoidAmerican’s helpful mid-point calculator over at occultdecode.com we can figure it quite easily to be 10/6/2011, which is only 1 day after the death of Steve Jobs, co-founder of Apple—who, you might know, himself was born 237 weeks after Apple’s other co-founder, Steve Wozniak (the same time after the Moon landing that Oz Perkins was born).
So but yes, that means that Hunter Schafer was exactly 666 weeks old when Steve Jobs died, and now here again was 666 + 666 weeks old when Shelley Duvall died. What the hell is that, exactly?
OK reader, the point has been made. Hasn’t it? Let’s all agree here that this is a real-life, genuine phenomenon we are examining. This is the elephant in the room, the fly in the ointment, the monkey in the wrench, the flying monkey in the wrench ointment!
And we are tracking its movements, learning how it goes about its business.
Now, go see Fly Me to the Moon and Longlegs in succession, if you dare.
ADDENDUM (7/15/2024):
Reader, so much has happened in the few days since we posted this article that it requires an editorial update. Much of what has occurred (like the shot at Trump) will be covered in future articles (theoretically), but there are two more salient details in the case of Longlegs and the death of Shelley Duvall that must be recorded and communicated before this little matrix can be considered complete.
While reading some old e-mails the death of Sue Lyon returned to the front of my mind. Sue Lyon was a Kubrick alumnus, having played the part of Lolita in 1962, and her death on 12/26/2019 finalized a lifespan that conceals something incredible (a teaser for another time). It might be said that the characters and performances by Shelley and Sue were the 2 most complex female characters to be found in the entire Kubrick corpus (at least until Nicole Kidman in Eyes Wide Shut).
Anyway, it simply occurred to me to check how much time elapsed between the death of these two top female alumni of Stanley Kubrick, Sue Lyon on 12/26/2019 and Shelley Duvall on 7/11/2024.
Surprising then to find that it was exactly 237 weeks.
So, that’s weird. But also: predictable. And why? Because of these two women’s relationship to Stanley Kubrick, Mr. 237. And that, again, is weird.
That’s the first item. The second concerns another celebrity death that occurred in the launch window of Longlegs, further contributing to the thick web of synchronicity enveloping everything right now. Ruth Westheimer, aka Dr. Ruth was a German-Jewish sex therapist as well as trained killer of Palestinians famous for her radio talk show. She also stood 4 foot 7 inches tall, which you might say is the opposite of having long legs.
Dr. Ruth died on 7/12/2024, the advertised release date of Longlegs and the day Nicolas Cage turned 60 years, 6 months, 6 days old. Her birth on 6/4/1928 means that the mid-point of her life settled on 6/23/76, a dateline which reads as a 237 between a 66, and happens to be the release date of the sci-fi classic Logan’s Run—a film already mentioned in this article (see supra) for the year of its setting: 2274, a number which a) equals 2037 + 237 and b) appears in the birth-dateline of Oz Perkins (2/2/74).
So, Dr. Ruth dies on the release date of Longlegs, which is directed by a guy named Oz born on 2/2/74, which we noted as being connected to the movie Logan’s Run before Dr. Ruth died, and then she dies the day after we publish our article, and the mid-point of her life turns out to be the day Logan’s Run released! That’s phenomenally weird.
Weirder still is that another film we have yet to mention was released on 6/23/1976. This one has already been featured in a video posted by Shawn on 2/6/2020 titled “Eight Films Saying “237” BEFORE The Shining.” It’s called The Big Bus, and it awkwardly pioneered the “slapstick disaster” genre that would be perfected by Airplane a few years later. The crazy part of The Big Bus is that its plot concerns a fellow named Dan Torrance, a bus driver accused of “resorting to cannibalism to survive” after a plane crash. Given that in The Shining the character named Danny Torrance asks his parents about the Donner Party, then tells them he knows “all about cannibalism,” this would be enough for a noteworthy sync, but the needles max out in the red on our Crypto-K instruments in the bar fight scene of The Big Bus where Dan Torrance’s accuser comments flatly: “Before the crash you weighed 180. When they found you pickin’ your teeth, you weighed 237. Explain that!” the character says with a literal wink on the ‘237’.
The Big Bus released in summer 1976, some months before Stephen King’s novel The Shining was published, a novel which doesn’t feature the number 237 but does feature a Dan Torrance and a discussion of cannibalism.
How on earth could it be that a ridiculous disaster movie released 7 months before King published The Shining, anticipated not just The Shining, but Kubrick’s version of it? Has Stephen King seen this movie? Did he secretly have a hand in writing it? Did Stanley Kubrick? These are the questions that such bizarre facts imply. And the life and timely death of Dr. Ruth points directly to it—and her death the day after Shelley Duvall, and the day before Richard Simmons (as well as the day before divine providence stepped into save Donald Trump from certain death)—and hell, Logan’s Run and Longlegs—are they all somehow related?
Tune in next time, for more such questions.
Hey Alex, a lot of things you have been talking about, including the seal numbers, have been popping up in my work more and more recently. I have been trying to track down as much LeClair material as I can the last few months, as it often goes hand in hand, I heard you with wk23 and jfr saying that you have some things, I'd be really interested if you do.
The future may be here running the program which reminds me of Sarfatti’s God Phone. His Mom reminded him of a day when he was 12 that he received a call from a metallic voice informing him he and 20 or so others would change the world of physics. As it is he is working on faster than light physics. All that to suggest that an AI, the Black Knight even, may be running a simulation here on us which encodes 237 every so often such as a Strange Attractor from Chaos Theory, an eddy and whirlpool in our streams from The Consciousness Sublime. We, you, noticing it most logically in film. But there is also of course the Library Genie which may include numbers in strange attractions.
I was reminded of Eating Raoul there toward the end fwiw, maybe it has a place in your matrix.
Enjoyed the article too, thanks!
