Scarfacian

Scarfacian
An attitude reminiscent of Al Pacino’s portrayal of drug kingpin Tony Montana in Brian De Palma’s 1983 cult classic “Scarface.”

Scarfacian seems to have been coined by Ken Tucker, author of “Scarface Nation” – an analysis of the film’s impact of American culture over the past quarter-century. Yet, the term was rather pithily defined by Steven Rea in an article on Philly.com as “a certain epic, over-the-top, coked-up and profane sense of invincibility.”
