Who better to star in the 1963 film's titular role than Elizabeth Taylor, one of the most stunning starlets of Old Hollywood? While there have been rumors of "Cleopatra" remakes from directors like David Fincher or Denis Villeneuve, as well as a recent rumor of a version from the "Wonder Woman" team Patty Jenkins and Gal Gadot, none can match what /Film writer Ben Pearson calls a "tremendous piece of old-school filmmaking that exemplifies the type of opulent excesses that pervaded the Old Hollywood era."

"Prisoners of the Ghostland" came burdened with promises of being "unlike anything" we've ever seen from Nicolas Cage before, a star (in)famously known for being unafraid to let it all hang out -- in this particular instance, literally! -- and risk looking foolish in his pursuit to give a movie exactly the jolt of manic energy it needs.
