Nicholas Cage has been on an interesting upswing of late. After winning Oscar gold for Leaving Las Vegas, he began taking action roles, took some time off, then came back to do pretty much whatever delivered a check. He’s become a meme, he’s been attacked by bees, and he’s even a part of the Marvel Universe. Now, thankfully, his knack for cult cinema and fearlessness may be paying off as RLJE Films released the trailer for MANDY, which debuted at Sundance and Cannes this year.
In the Pacific Northwest in 1983, outsiders Red Miller and Mandy Bloom lead a loving and peaceful existence. When their pine-scented haven is savagely destroyed by a cult led by the sadistic Jeremiah Sand, Red is catapulted into a phantasmagoric journey filled with bloody vengeance, laced with fire.
