Vampire's Kiss (6/11) Movie CLIP - A Horrible Job (1988) HD

CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Peter (Nicolas Cage) informs Alva (Maria Conchita Alonso) that she has the worst job because she's the lowest on the totem pole.

FILM DESCRIPTION:
Vampire's Kiss follows the story of yuppie literary agent Peter Loew (Nicolas Cage) as he descends into madness and vampirism. Loew believes he has been bitten by a vampire (Jennifer Beals) and is slowly becoming one himself, despite the contrary opinion of his therapist (Elizabeth Ashley). He then begins to wage a campaign of escalating terror against his secretary and first potential victim, Alva (Maria Conchita Alonso, looking appropriately baffled). Alva begs her parents to let her stay home from work to avoid her unusual boss, but they force her to go on that fateful day, and the plot unfolds. Vampire's Kiss became a cult item on the basis of Cage's outrageous performance: at one point he actually eats a live cockroach.

What's great about Nicolas Cage is he's not trying to always look good in movies, he is totally willing to look insane for the sake of entertaining viewers.

[henrysoprano]

I think his acting is brilliant, no other actor could come up with such a weird and funny performance, it takes the whole character to another level of depth

[rockbusterproductions]

The scene that inspired millions of memes.

[digitalkid]

Ohhhh I just love these scenes when Nicholas is out of the cage.

[littleripper]

My boss does a great impersonation of this every day all day

[patgogan]

Simultaneously frightening and hilarious

[Guigley]

I honestly can't think of another actor who could've pulled this scene off.

[TwiliVaati]

Jesus christ it actually looks terrifying

[KlassicKolt]

I watched this for the first time the other day and I honestly think it's become my favorite Nicholas Cage movie! He's so crazy in this one and it's hilarious! XD

[laylover]

Unironically fantastic performance. Entertainment over believability.

[siddharthsehgal]

Plot Twist: Cage wasn’t acting in this scene, he was talking to his agent

[austinj.decareaux]

Fun fact: Nicolas Cage said the goal of this scene was to see how big he could make his eyes

[nev]

My parents: Your teachers aren’t that bad, be grateful you have them.

My teachers:

[webhead]

I NEVER MISFILED ANYTHING!! NOT ONCE NOT ONE TIME!!

[dragishawk]

That crazed look on Nic's face frigging makes this scene.

[AddMoreQuarters]

This is honestly some of the greatest dialogue I've ever heard in any movie and his delivery was perfect.

Also, she was in Predator 2.

[nateds]

My face hurts from smiling for so long.

[CaptainPrice]

"So, if it's such a horrible job, who would do it if you fire me?"

[craigsteward]

He doesn't even say You don't say

[nathanslay]

This scene alone should have won Cage a second Oscar.
