I like weird films, and because of this fact I tend to experience some truly strange and unique movies. Aimy in a Cage may be a step too far into the “weird” for some, but if you are a fan of the likes of A Clockwork Orange it may just push the right buttons for you.

Aimy Micry (Allisyn Ashley Arm) is a free spirited artistic girl who lives with her grandma (Terry Moore) who hates her.

It is time for a dip into the surreal. Hooroo Jackson's fantasy and horror film Aimy in a Cage is moving towards a 2016 release date. The film involves several characters living behind strong walls as a virus rages outside. A strange surgery is performed on the inhabitants, to prevent them from acting out. As well, Aimy in a Cage stars Crispin Glover (Simon Says), Allisyn Ashley Arm, Terry Moore and Paz de la Huerta. A preview of the film's launch, through Osiris Entertainment, is hosted here. Film fans will notice a surreal element in the film's latest trailer. The clip shows characters in period costumes, acting in a bizarre fashion. Settings and costumes change in lighting and time periods. Meanwhile, the music has a carnival-like tone. The film's story takes place in an offbeat world. Here, the protagonist's mind is altered and so is the viewer's. Aimy in a Cage was funded through Bitcoin.
