Why it’s HorroRated

Willy's Wonderland is the most successful of the recent Nicolas Cage genre films because it found the exact right register for his performance: a man who never speaks, never emotes, and simply destroys animatronics with methodical competence. The contrast between Cage's total calm and the carnage is the joke and the film knows it completely. Absolutely worth your time.

Synopsis

Nicolas Cage plays a man who never speaks, never emotes, and simply destroys animatronics with methodical competence. The contrast between his total calm and the carnage is the joke and the film knows it completely. A specific kind of low-budget horror that knows its audience.
