      As to be expected when Nicolas Cage is uncaged.

            Just saw this one. It's an absolutely fantastic dark comedy horror film. Nicolas Cage is great and really brings out the comedy in the premise and so is Selma Blair. I think the boyfriend character may be a reference to Ben from Night of the Living Dead. I also loved the 70's style opening credits and music. No spoilers from me but the ending is the weakest aspect without question. The problem is that it doesn't have an ending.

            Otherwise I give this a 9 out of 10.

              I decided to chime in here, but Alex has got my exact thoughts on this, cept I'd maybe go a 7.5. The very end of the film is not good, but man, Cage really amps the idiot up to 450% in this. I didn't expect to like it, but watched it right after SUBURBICON, which had similar themes.....kinda. But yeah, this was more dark than comedy, lots of grim stuff to be found.

                I am more of Tolch then Alex on this. Sure, I liked it. But it was a bit to unevenly paced to render more then a 7/10.
