Do we have a word for this yet? “Stress horror”? “Anxiety thriller”? Plain old “Kafkaesque”?
A relentless, darkly funny, and mildly psychedelic nightmare of misfortune, anxiety, and regret. Part Beau Is Afraid, part The Big Lebowski.
Nic Cage is great, but he’s not remotely gratuitous. In fact, I could see someone else being cast in this role. But what comes out is a Nic Cage movie for sure.
