Greatoneshere Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 I'm hoping this will be pretty good, and probably funny. It's written by Ryan Ridley, responsible for writing multiple episodes from the first three excellent seasons of Rick and Morty (as well as one episode of Invincible, where he hooked up with Robert Kirkman, who is credited here with "an original idea by"). It's also directed by Chris McKay, who did The Lego Batman Movie and The Tomorrow War. I'm curious to see how this'll turn out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always been a Nicolas Cage fan, but yes, he's done plenty of bad movies - remember the streak of shit from 2006-2014, something like that? So yeah, he has, many. But he's recently made a comeback so here's hoping. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes Was he bad or was the movie bad because of him? I would say not necessarily. In fact Nic Cage makes bad movies worth watching. So I think @Derek is on the right page here. Mr. Cage has never done a bad movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have toked on some Golden Tiger, and found it pretty damn awesome. Looks like a slightly dramatic version of What We Do in the Shadows TV series with what Guillermo is going through.

SoberChef Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Personally I'll be seeing this opening weekend for sure! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoberChef Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 Nobody else saw this over the weekend? Part of my double feature alongside The Covenant, was to see this first. What a fun freaking time. The tone is set almost instantaneously & the message is abundantly clear about overcoming toxic relationships, really well done. A whole lot of laughs & so much over the top (mostly CGI unfortunately but no less comedic AF) blood & gore. Also, kudos to Jenna Kanell for having a part in this (was formerly in Terrifier!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheLeon Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 Just saw this. It was fine. I was pleasantly surprised to see Ben Schwartz had a major role. I always like seeing him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nokra Posted April 24, 2023 Share Posted April 24, 2023 Saw this today and found it entertaining. It's pretty silly and occasionally the dialogue kinda irked me, but it definitely had some good funny moments. Nic Cage is of course wonderful, and Ben Schwartz was likewise a highlight.

TwinIon Posted May 2, 2023 Share Posted May 2, 2023 Went to see it last night and it was fine. A perfectly suitable "oh hey, it's on [streaming service you already subscribe to]" type of movie. Some funny bits, a nice over-the-top Nic Cage performance, and a little action sprinkled in. I don't think it's going to end up a cult classic, but I had a good time in the theater. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greatoneshere Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 This was very enjoyable - better than it had any right to be, honestly. It's not as good as The Unbearable Weight of Massive Talent was (another movie that was much better than it had any right to be), the movie is simply too slight to be anything too great, but it's genuinely fun, funny and energetic despite all the hilarious R-rated blood and viscera. Genuinely exploring the toxic power dynamic between Renfield the familiar and Dracula the vampire is a smart thematic conceit. I think everyone should give this one a watch. It's not some movie you'll keep coming back to again and again, but it's definitely a good movie worth a watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stepee Posted June 25, 2023 Share Posted June 25, 2023 Yeah I found this very enjoyable! Cage is fantastic as Dracula. I love Awkwafina, she had that same impossibly cool energy as Charlie in Poker Face. Ben Schwartz is also great. Some real funny bits and lots of gore.

Derek Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 Just watched this. I wasn't going to bump the thread, but I enjoyed the movie a lot more than I thought I would. I expected a vampire movie with a few laughs. I didn't think I'd get such a fun, violent action film. The fight at his apartment building is up there as one of my favorites. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
