USA | 1991 | 97 minutes | 18A
Infamously unavailable and presented in the most appropriate way: a glorious, unrated director’s cut laserdisc, ZANDALEE introduces us to a mustachioed Nicolas Cage as Johnny, a recently released convict in New Orleans (Cage’s beloved home). A tortured abstract painter by night and vending machine repair man by day, Johnny reunites with his best friend Thierry (Judge Reinhold with a competing mustache) and finds himself smack dab in the middle of a love triangle with the titular Zandalee (Erika Anderson of “Twin Peaks: Invitation to Love” fame).
With supporting roles from Marisa Tomei, Steve Buscemi, and Joe Pantoliano, as well as a lot of bayou crocodiles, ZANDALEE is the erotic 90s masterpiece you never knew you needed. This is A+ UnCaged, a rarity if there ever was one and honestly, the Cage film you’ve been missing from your archive. Brace yourselves.
Director: Sam Pillsbury
Cast: Nicolas Cage, Judge Reinhold, Erika Anderson, Steve Buscemi
DETAILS
UnCAGED: Vol. 2 – 90s Edition
Break out your snakeskin jacket, stow your tray tables, fasten your seatbelts, and switch on the siren, UnCAGED is back! After a global pandemic put an untimely pause on the inaugural UnCAGED in mid-March of 2020, we’re back and bigger than before. For UnCAGED Volume 2, we’re looking at the master of Western Kabuki during his zenith: the 1990s. A seemingly chaotic decade that saw Cage working with bonafide arthouse auteurs including David Lynch and Martin Scorsese, while also starring in direct-to-video erotic thrillers, and of course dominating the box office in the summer of ’97 with competing action masterpieces, the ‘90s gifted the world a Cage at his purest and most dedicated to his craft. Celebrate all that makes Nicolas Cage an incomparable entertainer every Wednesday in April, only at the Revue Cinema!
Presented without irony and with a respect for theatrical presentation, UnCaged offers a variety of Cages to contemplate. Visit the in-cinema UnCAGED marketplace for all your Cage collectible needs, including last edition’s sold-out Cage Trading Cards from artist Keenan Tamblyn, Cage swag, limited edition posters, and more!
