    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

    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)

    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!

  • @Naamturd101

    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.

    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!
