It looks like the performance is one of Cage’s most daring to date – iO9

The good folks over at Gizmodo’s io9 site have curated a neat list of just 33 Fall films they recommend, and what do you know, film festival darling Mandy starring Nicolas Cage and directed by Panos Cosmatos (Beyond the Black Rainbow) is featured towards the top of the list! Check out the full list at io9 online.

Also, don’t you hate it when you’re leaving the theater after the movie is over and want to know what song was that? And, because using Shazam is a no-no while the movie is playing, you’ll do yourself a favor when you pre-order the album featuring score by the late and great Johann Johannsson now, as the full album releases the same day as the film! The iTunes order comes with two instant-grat tracks and an exclusive bonus track, “Chainsaw Fight” only available on Apple Music and iTunes.

Listen To ‘Forging The Beast’ By Johann Johannsson (Mandy Soundtrack) | Paste

August 2, 2018 Film Music Daily Staff

Heavy synthesizer builds throughout, evoking a sense of pursuit that’s all too fitting for a film with a plot described as “set in the primal wilderness of 1983, Red Miller, a broken and haunted man, hunts an unhinged religious sect who slaughtered the love of his life.” – Paste Magazine

Ahead of the Mandy soundtrack release on September 14, the world is given a first listen to Johann Johannsson’s score cue, “Forging The Beast” at Paste Magazine! The single comes as an instant-grat track (as well as “Children of the New Dawn” and a Bonus Track) for those who pre-order the full album on iTunes this Friday, August 3!

Mandy: The Highly Anticipated Movie Trailer Debuts, Johann Johannsson Score Coming Soon | The Playlist

June 27, 2018 Film Music Daily Staff

Cage’s seemingly inherent visceral nature is back on display in “Mandy,” which many from Sundance consider being his best work yet – Jacob Davison, The Playlist

Panos Cosmatos’ Mandy movie is one of the most highly-anticipated films of the year, starring Nicolas Cage, Andrea Riseborough and Linus Roache. The Playlist pretty much says it seems as if everything Cage has done so far has led up to this. You’ll have to watch the trailer to find out. It’s psychedelic. It’s metal. It’s everything and more.

Suffice it to say, the late Johann Johannsson’s score is equally highly-anticipated. Read the full story at The Playlist! What do you think of the trailer? Let us know in the comments below.
