Looking Glass is a 2018 American thriller film directed by Tim Hunter and starring Nicolas Cage and Robin Tunney.

Longing for a fresh start, they purchase a motel from Ben in a small town located somewhere in the California desert on the way to Las Vegas.

Ray and Maggie also make acquaintance with Tommy, a likable truck driver who regularly frequents motel room No.

He notices that Howard keeps asking if he knew Ben’s whereabouts and that Jessica has nightly visits from another woman, Cassie the Strawberry Blonde.

As they come back, they find the slashed corpse of a pig in the motel’s swimming pool with a note stuffed into the stomach reading “Crissy”.

Tommy says a young local woman named Crissy had committed suicide in the pool by cutting her stomach open.

Later that night, Ray watches her and another woman have BDSM sex, but also notices a man sitting around the corner in the bathroom.

Ben offers to return fifty percent of the purchase price to Ray and advises him to leave town immediately.

Upon arriving at the motel, Ray notices Howard’s police car in the parking lot and finds signs of a struggle in his apartment.

"[4] Eric Cohn of IndieWire described Nicolas Cage's character as a "bored peeping tom" and called the film "VOD bait"[5] in his negative review.

Robert Abele of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the playground in which the film operates "should be enough to make for a satisfyingly disreputable thriller" but that hoping for one "doesn't equal results.

Club wrote, "Despite [Cage's] presence and the movie's atmosphere, Looking Glass is just another murder mystery without enough suspects.
