8MM (1999)
- written February 2000

Tom Welles is a detective going deep undercover in seedy Los Angeles. He has reason to believe a snuff film has been created and the widow of a multi-millionaire wants to know if the film is real (and why her husband was really so nasty). Once inside the world of porn, snuff and everything else, Tom realizes you can never get this stuff out of your head!
Overall: A decent film wit some rough edges that can tend to make you wince as you watch it. Cage definitely needs to stay away from films such as "Face-Off" and "The Rock" so he can concentrate on his acting skills. This movie is a start in that direction. Comparison: Boogie Nights meets Hellraiser |
