What’s the only thing worse than killer robots? Off-brand killer robots! The Banana Splits Movie just gave us one attempt at doing a Five Nights At Freddy’s movie without actually using the name of the long-running video game horror franchise that clearly inspired it, and now Nicolas Cage is also going to do a Five Nights At Freddy’s movie without actually calling it Five Nights At Freddy’s. As reported by Deadline, Cage is going to star in Wally’s Wonderland, a movie about a janitor who is “forced to spend the night in a twist amusement park where he is pulled into a living nightmare.” Naturally, given the first few sentences of this story, the janitor is terrorized by “animatronic characters come to life” and has to “fight his way from one monster to another to survive until morning and get out of the park.”
So it’s One Night At Wally’s… or maybe it’s the Itchy And Scratchy Land episode of The Simpsons? Either way, Nicolas Cage will be there, which is always (?) a good (?) thing. Wally’s Wonderland is being directed by Kevin Lewis, who says that he envisions it as “Pale Rider vs. Killer Klowns From Outer Space.” That sounds rad, as does a movie about Nicolas Cage killing robots in an empty theme park, so consider us intrigued.

Dude looks like he’s prepping for a Grizzly Adams reboot, only instead of being a lovable guy with a bear friend, he’s just a crazy person that lives in the woods and maybe has an imaginary bear friend.Or believes he’s a bear. Or is actually a wearbear.
I’d agree, but his pasty sallow skin proves he hasn’t been outdoors in a while.
I think we know from his work in ‘Wicker Man’ that he has the necessary bear acting chops.
“Or believes he’s a bear. Or is actually a wearbear.”Right on! A sequel to Vampire’s Kiss!
Ugh! Werebear! No more typing at the end of the day!
Wherebear?
“Wherewolf” is one of my favorite typos. I’ve always assumed it’s a wolf that’s like the Dungeons & Dragons displacer beast — by magic or a twist of physics, it’s a few feet from where it appears to be. A wherebear would be just as terrifying.
Care Bears get folded into Paul Feig’s Dark Universe as The WereBears.
I would totally watch a movie where Nicolas Cage has an imaginary bear friend
Holy shit, that is one dense beard. I can’t help but think his ass is just as hairy for some reason.
That’s not Nick Cage.(ogawdpleaseletthatnotbeNickCage)
The National Treasure franchise is going in some weird new directions.
Shame the director of this has done virtually nothing in over a decade and what he has done has been rated poorly.Love the plot, love me some Cage. But as always I have to be HUGELY skeptical of anything he does.
Twist: It’s actually a documentary about the robots Nic Cage has been battling now for years, secretly keeping the world safe.
I hope that he’s in character as Spider Man Noir throughout this entire film.
Wally’s Wonderland is being directed by Kevin LewisOh neat the guy who maaaaade…. (furiously IMDBs)….
I don’t know any of these movies.
I might check out Malibu Spring Break https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379363/?ref_=nm_flmg_dr_6
I’m more interested in the mysterious Andrew Jackson White Elk starring…only Wes Studi, apparently. The story seems to revolve around something to do with adding a “full plot” but the twist is that there isn’t even a synopsis!M Night Shyamalan eat your heart out!https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0139022/?ref_=ttfc_fc_tt
wow… and nothing since 2007???
One Night At Wally’s which isn’t Five Nights At Freddy’s which isn’t What Happened To Me At Chuck E. Cheese 7 Years Ago.
Show me on the doll where the Robot Rat touched you.
And here I was wondering why Madame Tussauds put a beard on their wax figure of David Carradine.
Don’t forget, it’ll probably be IN 3D!!! meh, I dunno.
I would like to direct the inevitable Night Trap adaptation. I promise it will be tasteful, include Tipper Gore and Different Strokes references, and be better than the original game by being shorter and more interactive.
He reminds me of Galifianakis a little in that header shot.And now all I can think about is how a Between Two Ferns with Cage as the guest would go.
I love me some Nic Cage, but after Mandy, I’m not asking what he’s doing next, I’m asking what Mandy’s director, Panos Casmatos is doing next. The man is a goddamn visionary.
No offense but Nicholas Cage is a great actor with a wonderful catalog of films to peruse.
