- QuizIn a 2018 UK Guardian interview, Nicolas Cage described his performance's inspiration: only just before shooting started, his 14 year marriage to Alice Kim Cage came to 'a sudden end', which was "A shocker for me... didn't see it coming, and those feelings had to go somewhere, so they went into my performance."
- BlooperWhen Nic Cage's character turns to his forge to construct his revenge weapon the metal he pours is aluminium yet when he puts it on the anvil it's miraculously turned to steel.

Red Miller: You are a vicious snowflake.
- Curiosità sui creditiThe opening text "When I die, bury me deep, lay two speakers at my feet, put some headphones on my head and rock and roll me when I'm dead." appears to come from the final words of Douglas Roberts, a man convicted of kidnapping, robbery and murder in Texas and executed on April 20, 2005. This isn't directly credited or verified by the film.

Recensione in evidenza
Ok so I first watched this not sure what it was about but I was hopeful of some good old meme quality Nic Cage Rage scenes at the very least. After it finished I sat there thinking WTF and I had to go make a cup of tea and seriously think about some of my life decisions.
Once that was done I came on imdb to find out more about the film and to frankly rant a little. After spending a good half hour reading a lot of very mixed reviews I decided to leave it and watch the film again another day. Which I just have.
It's not my cup of tea. I think the majority of people will hate this film purely because it's not what they are used too, and they just don't get it. Yes ok sympathise with the haters the film is a very simple revenge plot, there's not much dialogue, it's filmed mostly in red and it can drag on in places and many will turn it off before it gets half way.... Which is a shame as this film left me with a similar 'wtf did I just watch' feeling that reminds me of the first time I watched 'Eraserhead.'
'Mandy' is very much an arthouse film with a dose of 80's grindhouse thrown in and if that's the kinda film you like you will love this film. Nic Cage is brilliant in it, and yes he has those rage moments, the violence is swift and brutal, there's even a chainsaw fight. It's surreal, the atmosphere and music blends perfectly with the madness and drug induced hysteria and anger the film is trying to portray in its own arthouse style and I genuinely think this will turn out to be a cult classic.
So yep, not for everyone, but at least try and appreciate it for what it is. 8/10.
