Nicolas Cage is a voyeur wrapped in an enigma in Looking Glass trailer

Last Updated on July 30, 2021

Shortly after Ray (Nicolas Cage) and Maggie (Robin Tunney) purchase a desert motel, they find that a series of bizarre and mysterious events are occurring deep within its walls. Directed by Tim Hunter (HANNIBAL, WAYARD PINES) and written by Jerry Rapp and Matthew Wilder, LOOKING GLASS looks to be sending a voyeuristic Cage to a place where pleasures of the flesh and murder make for strange bedfellows.

I don't know about you, but I'm getting sort of a BEING JOHN MALCOVICH meets RED SHOE DIARIES sort of vibe from this movie. It's got a bit of a noir flavor to it as well, which could make for an interesting story, once all of its intricate pieces begin falling into place.
