What is it?
The 2018 psychedelic action horror movie Mandy.
Here is how The IMDb describes this movie:
The enchanted lives of a couple in a secluded forest are brutally shattered by a nightmarish hippie cult and their demon-biker henchmen, propelling a man into a spiraling, surreal rampage of vengeance.
Taking place in 1983, Red is a lumberjack who lives in a secluded cabin in the woods. His artist girlfriend Mandy spends her days reading fantasy paperbacks. Then one day, she catches the eye of a crazed cult leader, who conjures a group of motorcycle-riding demons to kidnap her. Red, armed with a crossbow and custom Axe, stops at nothing to get her back, leaving a bloody, brutal pile of bodies in his wake.—texasboyy
My Thoughts
I somehow forgot to make a post about this movie after I saw it, I saw it back in either 2018 or 2019 I think, and it was a pretty surreal & psychedelic & crazy movie with a slow start & unique mood.
Nicolas Cage did a good job going crazy in this role, but they did not give Andrea Riseborough much to do, unfortunately.
This movie was like an Adult Swim short turned into a live action movie for stoners to watch late at night or something, and was like a boring dream that suddenly becomes a crazy slasher-like dream.
It is worth watching at least once if you want to watch something weird & surreal & crazy & different, but it is not family friendly.
