Alex Proyas and Nicolas Cage combine forces to give us one of the most bafflingly bad films in recent memory. Way to go!

{ Comments on this entry are closed }

Alex Proyas is responsible for the sci-fi noir thriller Dark City (a film which I love to no end). Nicolas Cage, despite having a career which I kindly refer to as spotty, has made some enjoyable flicks over the years, and even picked up an Oscar. The fact that this combination produced a movie such […]
