Episode 128

Mandy

Mike and Allyson asked their friend Dennis Burdziak for something "fucked up" to watch for their Halloween episode. Dennis delivered with an absolutely trippy mindfuck of a heavy metal descent into madness starring Nicolas Cage. Mandy was written and directed by Panos Cosmatos. It not only serves as a bizarre love letter to all things dark and metal, but also the over-the-top action movies his father George Cosmatos directed like Stallone classics Cobra and First Blood Part 2. It would have been really cool if Cosmatos also directed Stallone in Over the Top.
