A new teaser for Prisoners of the Ghostland promises a full trailer is on the way tomorrow, August 11. Unfortunately, the short teaser only reveals a few frames of Nicolas Cage's Hero, a leather-clad post-apocalyptic cowboy-samurai fighting his way through a ghost-infested wasteland. Honestly, does anyone needs any other reason to watch this movie? RLJE Films will release Prisoners of the Ghostland in theaters and on VOD and digital on September 17.

Prisoners of the Ghostland premiered at the 2021 Sundance Film Festival, delivering what many consider the craziest Nicolas Cage movie to date — that’s a bold definition, given that Cage already starred in films such as Mandy and Mom and Dad. Even so, the movie’s official summary gives us little reason to doubt this statement, as Prisoners of the Ghostland will follow Cage wearing a leather costume with explosives strapped on it while trying to bring back the escaped daughter of a warlord.
