Mandy is a refreshing, unbridled riff on the familiar horror story of a wronged person who exacts revenge on the bad guys in horrible fashion.

Full Review | Original Score: 8.8/10 | Jul 26, 2023

Astonishing cinematography, powerful score, amazing performances, mind-blowing visuals, and a bloody vengeance story. See it to believe it!

If there was ever a film that’s the equivalent of a Stephen King wet dream, this is it.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 16, 2022

Cage is utterly in his element.

Full Review | Aug 5, 2022

Don't expect a straightforward plot, deeply felt emotions, or even a sense of reason behind the formal choices throughout.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/4 | Mar 8, 2022

Mandy's heavy metal influences come through loud and clear, not just in the booming soundtrack but in the film's mechanics itself.

Episode 9: Phantasmagoria

Full Review | Original Score: 86/100 | Aug 28, 2021

A violent, beautiful, deranged, and haunting work of art.

Full Review | Original Score: 4.5 / 5 | Jun 25, 2021

A deeply weird movie, tailored for a very specific grindhouse type of audience, and brought to life by Cage's cock-a-doodle performance.

Full Review | Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 1, 2021

Mandy's death propels the movie descending rapidly into total mayhem and provides perhaps Nic Cage's Cagest performance in years. That long take rage scene in his underwear in the bathroom is a sight to behold.

Full Review | Feb 13, 2021

Despite its obvious low-budget construction, it's stylish and alarmingly original, while Cage doesn't hold back the rage in his performance.

Full Review | Original Score: 5/10 | Dec 7, 2020

No matter what side of the cinematic spectrum you sit on, Mandy needs to be seen to be believed.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 27, 2020

As a bereaved lover out for blood, Cage is unstintingly, resolutely fantastic in the hack 'n' slash 1980s genre homage.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Aug 19, 2020

It may not be the phantasmagorical face-melting extravaganza it ought to be, but it'll singe more than a few eyebrows.

Full Review | Original Score: 3.5/5 | Jul 25, 2020

Mandy is a love letter to a time where horror movies had a combination of otherworldly visuals and contemporary special effects to show the sheer brutality of either revenge or evil.

Full Review | Jul 20, 2020

Bug-nuts crazy, drug-addled, apocalyptic-doomsday-cult-fueled, chainsaw-fighting, demon-biker-having madness and mania.

Full Review | Original Score: A | Jun 30, 2020

A strange, visceral, visually stunning film with a hypnotic aesthetic that builds psychedelic atmospheres and characters that only love cruelty and gloom. [Full review in Spanish]

Full Review | Original Score: 7/10 | Jun 27, 2020

There's just so much going on here in this contorted, awful version of the world, that it has to be seen to be believed, let alone appreciated. See this in a theater if you possibly can; the collective mind melt experience will be too good to pass up.

Full Review | Jun 23, 2020

Mandy is a mostly fun movie but while the character and relationship building is good, it feels like it takes a bit too much time and leaves too little time to the mayhem.

Full Review | Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 11, 2020

Bizarre revenge horror movie has graphic violence, gore.
