visuals, visuals and visuals... Mandy's strongest asset is without a shadow of a doubts its hyper-stylized visuals everything goes hand in hand to deliver a unique visual identity to it, the colorful neon lights, the dirty lenses, incredible set designs and costumes; coupled with a punchy soundtrack/SFX, it really is an audio-visual experience.. however, in terms of plot, its a bit lost and ambiguous, the kind of ambiguity that makes you quit the movie at moments, i didn't understand it nor feel the desire to after watching, despite poking my curiosity several times. Mandy crafts itself a unique identity with both visuals and story as i find it difficult to classify it in a specific genre borrowing elements from campy slashers, cosmic horror and few more... casting Nic Cage in this and letting him Cage out was a moment to be seen.
