By Daniel Cruse —

Mandy is a 2018 dark thriller directed by Panos Cosmatos, starring Nicolas Cage as Red Miller, a man living a peaceful life in the woods with his girlfriend, the titular Mandy, until a radical religious cult comes and takes her from him. He sets out on an extremely bloody, visceral, disturbing journey to seek vengeance.

This movie is framed in a surreal way with saturated visuals. An array of reds and flashing greens mixed with soft blues cover every part of the screen.
