Prisoners of the Ghostland

We check out the new Nic Cage movie, Prisoners of the Ghostland, a sci-fi neo-noir directed by Japanese director Sion Sono, about a nameless hero sent out into the wasteland to retrieve a lost "grandaughter." The film is mostly known for a certain "explosive" scene, but how does the rest of the film stack up?

Adapted by Stephen Brown-Fried, this is Shakespeare like you've never experienced it. Part 1: Foreign Wars opens with a king dead, an infant on the throne, and a country already coming apart at the seams. Part 2: Civil Strife picks up nearly 30 years later...and the bloodbath is yet to come. Simmering feuds explode into the War of the Roses, and nothing will ever be the same.
