Ditto, and partly for the same reasons. “No more drugs for this man”?

He was just like into it. We started getting together, doing like improvisations in his trailer, based on the Crumb brothers, and just like cracking ourselves up. Just making up the most absurd shit, talking about 'sex sandwiches', and just free-associating. His assistant would write it all down, and then we would send it to John Woo. And John Woo just loved it. Like, I couldn't believe the stuff we were coming up with was just so random. He was looking at our pages, and he was like 'Sex sandwich. Very funny.

Face/off out of the two.

I’ll say this about Nicholas Cage - for as many godawful ‘I did this for the money’ projects that he has done, the dude never phones it in. Thespian talent notwithstanding, he just goes balls deep into whatever weird roles they hand him.

My favorite of his, a little lesser known from the 80s is Vampires Kiss. You have to sit through some 80s cheese to get to the goodies, but he is in top form in that.
