1. Mandy (Shudder)

Yo, what the fuck?

This movie was absolute insanity. Nicholas Cage just a god damned lunatic, acid trip lunacy, blood and gore all over the place. Just a fucking wild ride.

Mandy is about a man and his girlfriend, Mandy. A cult captures both of them. Eventually, there's a bloody, murderous revenge. Also, many drugs.

I mean, that covers it for the plot right? There's something oddly surreal about this whole experience--in a good way. I don't come across movies like this very often where it feels somehow grounded yet I'm a mile away from it, because it's that intense and insane. The color pallet and direction really makes this movie something unique, and the entire story is... I mean, it's what the story is. Who actually cares? It's not very important and it's just... bizarre, yet easy to get?

I don't think there's a way to sufficiently put together my thoughts on this film, just because it's wild. When it gets fucking wild, it's off the chain pull no punches wild and I love that it's so unabashed fucking crazy. It gets very artistic at times despite this.

I have literally only one drawback, and it's that I feel like this movie was a bit too long. It probably could have been cut down in some areas, and probably in the beginning. Other than that, it's such a satisfying ride.

If you want some kind of out of your mind horror experience that kicks up and never lets up until the end, I really recommend it. It's such a completely different experience that I don't know can be matched by a lot.

Rating: 8.5/10
