The Jesus Cult guy reminded me of Onision

You should make a series called “the cage” and just review Nicolas Cage movies.

"There's so much testosterone in this movie that they named it fucking **MANDY** 10/10 Perfect delivery

This is my favorite movie of all time so here are some interesting tidbits: -Nick Cage was actually approached to play Jeremiah first but he felt drawn to Red, and it took them two weeks to realize how perfect that would be -The cosmic and planet theming could coincide with Mars being the god of War, and Mars is the red planet, so there ya go -The biker demons are obviously a nod to the four horseman of the apocalypse -The dude who plays Jeremiah also played Thomas Wayne in Batman Begins -The director said that after Red tries the LSD, he's basically transformed into Jason Voorhees

Elvis, the scene where red comes home to cheddar goblin commercial is supposed show you the world doesn't care or stop for your problems

I hope he was using sawsall on those trees...Cause it saws all

After I'd finished watching Mandy I just kinda sat and thought to myself: drugs would've probably helped me understand that more.

This movie works for me because it’s an actual psychological horror movie and Nic Cage somehow matches with that so well.

"But I'm pretty sure that if someone killed my wife, I'd find the strength to squish their head too." Dawww, gee golly isn't that just the sweetest, most romantic lovey-dovey statement you've ever heard?

"But I guess if someone killed my wife, I guess I'd find the strength to squish their head too." And they said romance was dead

In all honesty, the shot of cage screaming in the sunflower bathroom is very good

The thing I love most about Nic Cage is that he doesnt give a crap about the rep a movie character will give him. He just makes his money and keeps it moving. Its kinda smart though because you cant really attach just one character to him (eg: Robert Pattinson is a great actor but in the back of our mind, we will always see him as Edward)

never EVER mess with nicolas cage's shirt

Nicholas Cage is more than a national treasure, he's an international treasure by this point

I felt like the ambiguity of the body bag burning was intentional, because it causes us to experience the same denial Red would be going through at the time while we both know that was very intentionally Mandy.

I think what makes Nic Cage such a good actor is that he puts a lot of effort into every role he plays

The “biker jelly” is the super strong lsd and the one biker drinks like half a jar

"For some reason red sounds like a demon" Did you not remember be ate the super demon lsd?

As soon has he revealed the daddy Nic pillow I fucking lost it lol

The woman who plays Mandy....SO perfect. Haunting, distant, she almost seems like a ghost from the beginning. The whole thing is...very, very Metal. Also, the bad guys are clearly GWAR, and the jar is LSD Mayonnaise.

Pewdiepie = Bully memes Pyrocynical = Bully kids Elvis The Alien = Bully Nicholas Cage

* nick cage voice * A N A L B E A D S

If they ever make a doom movie, they NEED to cast nic cage as doom guy

"Hahaha. That's not a knoife. That's a knoife." this movie really seems awesome, I think I'm gonna have a try with it.

Nic Cage was initially slated to play Jeremiah in this movie, he declined and said he'd much prefer the lead role as Red, I think Panos made the correct decision.

Have you ever seen Swiss Army Man with Daniel Radcliffe? About a guy stranded on an island who befriends a dead body. Radcliffes the body and it's a trip.

that "you're a vicious snowflake" part was pretty badass imo

You know that when Nick Cage is in a film. Whether it is good or bad. He always has a superpower and that is insanity empowerment. The more insane he gets, the more badass/metal he becomes.

i feel like at 15:42, no matter how silly it is, its still quite sad how he reacts to losing a loved one, and I think its acted well

I want nic cage to say "rip and tear until it is done."

I don’t want to sound like an aged “in MY generation” elder, but I feel like you have to be maybe a little bit older or at least have an interest in the time period this movie was set in to really get it - this film PERFECTLY captures the Reagan era, D&D, fantasy, Frazetta, van with a little round window, let’s go camping and take acid, satanic heavy metal & Heavy Metal the movie feels and aesthetics - from the wallpaper in the bathroom and the ringer shirt Red wears to the middle part in Mandy’s hair - this movie is a masterpiece of this specific mood and it’s so fuckin weird on top! YASSSS!

Those eyedrops are LSD in liquid form.

The cheddar goblin commercial is supposed to show the absurdity of the universe slapping Nick in the face. I remember after I put my cat to sleep, the animal hospital was showing the ending to Homeward Bound when all the animals were reunited with their families. I had the same exact expression as Nicolas Cage.

FYI: Red didn't find his way home. The whole event happened at his and Mandy's house. They just took Red outside and kept Mandy indoors.

Nic Cage is a huge comic book fan, so I wouldn't be surprised if the Galactus line was his doing

The ending of Mandy felt like the bad ending in a video game

Hey have you ever watched a movie so crazy that you- *PISSED. BLOOD!??!!!*

Nicholas Cage is just Marilyn Manson without makeup

Elvis: The most insane... Nic Cage: Hold my career.

When you said, "Alexa, play Cannibal Corpse", my Alexa reacted...

Oh my god. I fell asleep watching YT on my TV and this freaking LOUD metal music woke me up or shall I say jumpscared me awake with Nicola Cage's face covered in blood... In my panic I couldn't find the remote to mute or turn it off. It was hella loud and I had to sleep with a light on because this traumatized me 🙃 thanks Elvis for the trauma

You triggered my Alexa device towards the end of the video, Elvis. Gave me a good scare.

I think the crossbow being named “the Reaper” might be a subtle reference to the Blue Öyster Cult song (Don’t Fear) the Reaper. It’s a metal song (sorta), with some horror elements. It’s first pop culture appearance was in the 1978 horror film Halloween. It was in the 1978 horror epic, the Stand (appearing nearly 20 years later in the ABC miniseries adaptation). It was even referenced in the 1992 rock n roll comedy, Bill and Ted’s Bogus Journey. But hey! That’s just a theory! A Film Theory! And.... cut!

That fucking neck snap with the smile was one of the greatest kills in cinematic history...

I believe this is the last movie Johan Johansson scored before he died. Such a shame that he had to go so early in his career.

Can’t wait for the re-upload of this later!

I have that pillow. I dont know what else to say.

The "Mandy" title screen showing up so late is really good attention to detail. We've all been there, we all know that you don't know what you have until you lose it.

Something tells me Elvis may have a crush on Nick Cage

MOST ROMANTIC QUOTE EVER "You gotta be pretty strong to do that. But I'm pretty sure that if someone killed MY wife, I'd find the strength to squish their head too, so..."

I love these Movies: Mandy, Willy's Wonderland, Color from outa Space,

The Beast is the coolest murder axe I’ve ever be ever seen in my life..... And trust me, I’ve seen a *LOT* of murder axes

Give me blood Give me metal music Give me *RED* Lots and lots of *REDDDDDDD* !!!!!!! Amateur hardcore movie in a nutshell. PS: Love Nicolas cage movies.

This is like a coked up version of outlast 2

I'm in love with the fact you give them shit for referencing Galactus and then reference Juggernaut a few minutes after

It's really hard to encapsulate how much of the 80's this movie captures. The overall fantasy themes of it, Reagan being on the radio to signify when the film is taking place, the Sabbath shirts and desolate setting in the woods, etc. Overall it really just plays on how the counter culture was. The War on Drugs and the Satanic Panic - this is all of that thrown into a Dungeons and Dragons campaign. If you remember that time period the movie hits some major nostalgia points in your mind. People in the metal music scene, and the next generation of hippies/druggies were wild. There was a real infatuation with Satan and chemists making some seriously intense hallucinogenics as sort of a push back to what the mainstream was doing. Mandy and Red feel like they kind of toed the fringe of that counter culture and were happy for it, without realizing how dark it can get.

I had to stop watching this. I’ll be back after I see this movie.

*I'm gonna steal the declaration of Independence.*

Nicholas Cage is honestly a great actor, he just took on some projects he really shouldn’t have.

When your movie is this batshit insane, it only makes sense to have Nic Cage at the helm.

The trip effects are actually decent. Accurate to white blotter. Not the heavier doses, but that for sure.

"But if someone killed my wife, I'm pretty sure I'd find the strength to crush their head too." Oooh :)

There is one image that like literally has stopped me from anything related to this movie, it’s an image from the scene with Nicolas Cage sitting in a car covered in blood

This is one of Nic Cage's BEST movies! And a great movie in itself! To go from this jaded lumberjack happy to get home to his deep artistic girl Mandy, and then the Cult Freaks arrive. And Nic's painful witness and mad vengeance thereafter. Nicely done! I don't get the parts where Nic shows up to get his crossbow, or the dude with the tiger that sympathizes with Nic. But the movie is so 'out there' it all kinda fits in the scheme of things for Nic's character. Like he's been through something like it before with some bad asses up in his grill - but this time they took his GIRL!!! Great creepy movie DRENCHED in atmosphere!

Have you seen Tusk? It's about a guy who gets surgically turned into a walrus. I highly recommend it lol.

I think the director knew this movie would be a really messed up movie and knew that Nicholas Cage and his insane acting would just work here.

i love how elvis is a complete nic cage stan

This is basically John Wick on LSD. I love it.

This whole movie is basically a slipknot music video

I loved this movie. It was pretty visceral. Cage did a hell of a job on this one. The theme song for this movie is amazing too.

This is one of my favorite films. Not exactly sure why. The experience was even better on the second watch, because the first time I saw it I kept waiting for it to turn into a typical horror or action film. Second time I could really get sucked into the atmosphere.

9:38 That’s actually a real wasp! It’s called a tarantula hawk; they hunt tarantulas and have some of the most painful stings in all of the insect kingdom

The intro to this is the most magnificent display of cinematography I have ever witnessed.

12:54 Fun fact, that dude plays Hastur in Good Omens. I already knew just because of his eyes, hes got some of the craziest eyes ive ever seen. (And i mean that with the utmost respect ^)

This looks legit dope. It's the perfect amount of insanity. And Cage is perfect for this kind of role.

Once you have experienced ego death firsthand through psychoactive drugs, this movie makes an insane amount of sense. I didn't necessarily relate to any of them by any means, but the entire story develops more depth and meaning.

24:00 why does this remind me of the scene from American Dad where Francine tells Stan she's pregnant, then Stan breaks a bottle and is about to stab her, but walks off, grabs a chainsaw, but changes his mind, walks off, grabs a cheetah, changes his mind, walks off, and grabs a cheetah holding a chainsaw lol

demonetized already? thats tough

Bro when you changed that pillow from red to cage I freaking lost it 😂😂

I absolutely love this movie, found it by absolute chance and had to recommend it to anyone and everyone

24:48, That Ghost Rider experience must have helped.

He’s not crafting his own Fortnite Pickaxe, he’s crafting his own MINECRAFT Pickaxe

I loved the obscurity of the setting. That one off character. And my God the color palette was👌👌👌👌

Reagan on the radio was just a way to let you know when the movies dated.

Somebody better send me a link to that pillow or I will steal that pillow while Elvis sleeps

"Demonic shit in this world glows green" So it actually IS from World of Warcraft.

I love the random skits he does, and adds into his commentary. those are pretty great. lmao.

I've always described this film as the most Artist Acid trip ever to grace TV screens.

Pretty sure the liquid he drank was some form of the chemist's fucked up lsd that turned the black skulls the way they are, who btw also had demon voices. It's probably why Red had the strength to crush Jeremiah's head, as it somehow gives them more strength as seen in the scene where Red's car is flipped.

no wonder the black skull missed, he drank an entire freaking bottle of that green goo, I wonder what he was seeing, he eyes and brain were probably bleeding

Panos Cosmatos' father is actually George P. Cosmatos who directed Rambo: First Blood Part II and Cobra, another Sylvester Stallone action movie!

20:47 doomguy when he touches his armor for the first time

I should rewatch the grim adventures of Billy and mandy

I need that Nicolas Cage pillow!

This is one of my favorite movies of all time. I watch it at least once a month 😂

I was wondering if you could do a review on the Netflix horror movie called " The Babysitter" and the second one, "The Babysitter: Killer Queen"

This movie is Khorne approved BLOOD FOR THE BLOOD GOD! SKULLS FOR THE SKULL THRONE!!

Elvis I bought one of your shirts and their amazing if anyone is thinking about buying one definitely do!

So it still stands. Nick Cage doesn't screen any of his roles and just says yes to anything and everything.

Because I saw you suggest this in another video, I watched it having no idea what to expect, I ended up being blown away! Best Nicholas Cage movie I've seen in years in. years!
