In a world full of people, there is only oneNicolas Cageand he has a new movie called…Pig. The film is about an isolated man whose cherished truffle pig is swiped in a home invasion. The emotional devastation leads him on a quest back into civilization in search of his prized swine. While it may be a revenge film, it’s no vengeance thriller alaJohn Wick, orI Saw the Devil. It’s a somber, slower Cage rage than audiences are becoming more accustomed to. It’s an evolution of the silence and brooding interlaced between explosive outbursts of emotion and violence in the second half ofMandy—an arthouse revenge horror movie featuring another must-see Nic Cage performance.
Pigmarks writer/directorMichael Sarnoski’s first full-length feature film after several short films and series. While NEON and A24 share a penchant for collaborating with the latest up-and-coming talent,Pigseems like NEON’s most A24-adjacent film sinceRevenge(2017). Early reviews are in and NEON films’Pigis sitting high on the hog at 97 % on Rotten Tomatoes. Strong visual storytelling—Pigreputedly bolsters a silent opening similar toPaul Thomas Anderson’sThere Will be Blood—and a restrainedNic Cageperformance has long been cited as a major strength of the film. It’s finally available for general audiences, so here’s a rundown of where it currently can, and can’t, be found.
