My Son, My Son, What Have Ye Done

Bad Lieutenant gets checkup from Dr. Mulholland himself, who Lynches the performances before letting Herzog run amok with editing and inclusion of documentary footage. The two stand-out performances come from Lieutenant veterans, Shannon and Dourif, and to say that either is type cast is just crazy. Another interesting Herzog experiment.

Herzog fills radical revision and substantial improvement of Ferrara’s drug-fest with quirkiest cast ever to not feature Ben Stiller. Kilmer and Cage are uncharacteristically good, reminding us that they are not action heroes. Mendes reprises role as Ghost Rider’s girlfriend and supporting cast provide excellent support. Especially those elusive iguanas.
