MOM AND DAD

Cert 15

Digital Monday, disc July 16 Nicolas Cage unleashes his inner maniac to demented effect in this outrageous satirical comedy horror.

Often uncomfortable to watch and daring to voice unspeakable truths about parenting, he and Selma Blair play a very ordinary middled-aged suburban couple with two kids.

One day a mass psychosis grips their town, and parents start murdering children, but only their own.

We’re shown parenting is not all love and kisses, but jealousy, resentment and a form of madness. And as a parent I’m not sure it’s healthy to laugh as much as I did.
