Nicolas Cage holding a bullet while sitting in the drivers seat of a car in The Surfer
Leave it to Nicolas Cage to have a movie about a Satanic serial killer and have that not even be his most stressful movie of the year. Fresh off terrifying audiences worldwide as the mannequin-like murderer who delivers the final line of “Hail Satan!” with campy glee, Cage ditches the prosthetics for a much more raw, but just as anxiety-inducing performance.
The Surfer returns to the beach the next day, sitting in his car as he tries to source the extra money for a higher bid on his house. The gang starts to taunt him, stealing his surfboard and physically assaulting him when he tries to get it back. The local police are chummy with the gang and do nothing, leaving the Surfer’s only ally to be a mentally ill vagrant who’s also targeted by the gang.
Related Nicolas Cage Thriller 'The Surfer' Just Got a Tsunami Sized Update The psychological thriller received a six-minute standing ovation at Cannes. The movie intentionally wants the audience to constantly question what is real, and what is in the imagination of Cage’s character, and it definitely succeeds. But this blurring prevents any substantial message from being gathered, and the themes and ideas get lost in the chaos as Cage beats a rat against a car. The movie is a test of one’s endurance and patience, much like how Uncut Gems has you look away from the screen even though it’s not a bit scary.
