MANDY (2018) 

MANDY (2018)

Erik Estrada who? King Crimson.

We’re in the woods with the dead fawn:  And the Marlborough Man!

Silence of the: Little baby starlings!

Andrea Risenborough is the star of the first half: then Nicky takes over!

SPOILER: Originally Nicky was to be the victim and  Andrea the avenger, but it would be too  much like Carrie!

Trailer park girls in a van: Do you like the Carpenters?

Truman Capote as the Messiah: In a ceremonial Klingon Bathrobe!

Mouth Breathers:  As long as you are a good girl!

Don’t be negative:  Toot it or lick it!

Don’t  rip his shirt: Ken Landreaux?  Can that be right? 

I don’t know the difference between a cliche, a trope,  and a Jungian Archetype, but, trust me on this, the guys who made this movie didn’t spend a lot of time worrying about it.  Bad Filmmaking at its very best! Treat yourself to a viewing  and Check it out!

Whenever I see a movie with a lot of smoking, I want to resume the habit. The Big Sleep is especially difficult for me. Mandy, not so much.
