Trailer For Nicolas Cage and Willem Dafoe’s Crime Comedy DOG EAT DOG
If you’re a fan of Nicolas Cage or Willem Dafoe, you’ve gotta watch this trailer for their upcoming crime comedy Dog Eat Dog. This movie looks completely unhinged! The movie was directed by Paul Schrader, who previously directed Cage in a film called The Cold Dying of the Light, which turned out to be a complete mess because the studio took it over and ruined it when they recut it. Schrader, who previously directed films such as Cat People, Auto Focus, and Dominion: Prequel to the Exorcist, had final cut on this latest project, so it turned out to be exactly what he wanted this time around. it looks like it could be fun, but it got mixed reviews when it premiered at the Cannes Film Festival, so we’ll just have to wait and see. I’m just on board with seeing Dafoe and Cage in a crazy movie together like this.
When three desperate ex cons are offered a job by a Mexican mob boss, they know they should refuse, but the payoff’s too rich to turn down. All they have to do is kidnap the kid of a colleague who’s ripping the mob boss off. But the abduction goes awry when the kidnappers are forced to kill an unexpected intruder who turns out to be the child’s father – the very man the mob boss intended to extort. Now unwelcome in the underworld and on the run for murder, the ex cons find themselves as the most wanted fugitives in the City of Angels. And each vows that none of them will ever go back to prison. No matter what the cost.
The film currently doesn’t have US distribution, so I’m not sure when we’ll get a chance to see it.
