If you loved The Day of the Beast, try Mutant Action

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Mutant Action has roughly 3.1× fewer votes than The Day of the Beast — it's a deeper cut, not a mainstream recommendation. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Álex de la Iglesia, and they sit in Action / Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Day of the Beast, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Mutant Action is

Galicia, 1993. A rented hovercraft whines over a storm-lashed vineyard. A gang of scarred radicals in dust-coated tuxedos hijacks a billionaire’s diamond-studded nuptials with homemade tasers and a stolen chopper. Pastel cakes rot beside overturned limos. Like Alex Cox’s crash-test satire of fascist chic, this is the day cosmetics met dynamite.
