10 Insane Over The Top Horror Movies

10. Prisoners Of The Ghostland (2021)

Helmed by Japanese cult icon Sion Sono (the mind behind Suicide Club and Ekusute) and starring Nicholas Cage in one of his trademark Cage performances, underseen gem Prisoners of the Ghostland is as certifiably insane as expected when putting these artists together.

Set in a bizarre post-apocalyptic world populated by samurai, cowboys, and a cult of irradiated mutants, the plot sees a bank robber known only as Hero (Cage) released from prison by the town’s cruel leader. Hero is put in a tight-fitting leather suit, armed with tactically placed explosives, and tasked with retrieving the leader’s “granddaughter” (Sofia Boutella), who mysteriously disappeared. Should Hero fail to complete his mission within five days, attempt to remove the suit, or make any inappropriate advances towards the woman, the explosives will detonate.

Hopping on a children’s bicycle, Hero sets off into the titular Ghostland - the wasteland outside of the town - to begin his mission. Things only get fantastically weirder from here.

This modern cult horror is something that needs to be seen to be believed. It’s a gorgeous cinematic outing that oozes with delicious, pulpy style from start to finish. As hilarious as it is captivatingly bonkers, there’s simply nothing else like this one.
