You should look at Deadfall. It’s got Michael Biehn, Nicolas Cage, James Coburn, Charlie Sheen and Peter Fonda. it’s one of the cheapest looking things I’ve ever seen. If I remember correctly, it looks like most of it was shot on a single warehouse soundstage. ANd the acting, so flat! They were obviously trying to make a serious noir, only Cage didn’t get the memo. Plus it was directed by his brother, so the whole thing is clearly the result of a bunch of called in favors. Oh, and also, Vulgar, that horrendous clown rape thing with Dante from Clerks, should definitely be on the list.
Seriously? Try listening to the director’s commentary, or watching the feature length documentary about the making of the movie, or basically just consulting any source of information other than the one you based your post on. It’s not meant as satire. It’s just an action movie made by a Catholic guy who loves Tarantino and believes in vigilante justice. Also, Willem Dafoe’s character is just a cheap way to insert some homophobia into the movie without getting in trouble for it. That’s actually why everyone I know who loves the character does so: “he’s gay, but he hates fags, so it’s ok!”
You know what’s kinda funny? The Adult Swim hip hop thing you were excited about a couple of posts back? Sponsored by Far Cry 2.
