I've actually been on a Cronenburg binge, starting with the films I'd already seen - Eastern Promises and History of Violence - and recently started with his early body horror
Proper enjoyed videodrome, scanners was pretty good - I think I'll give the Brood a go next, then I'm eying up Dead Ringers.
Any other essentials? doesn't have to be Cronenburg
damn thats weird, i was CONVINCED altered states was made cronenberg too before i looked it up, but nah it was some other guy yeah altered states is very fucking similar to cronenberg tho so check it out if you like his stuff, and i dunno, i'd rec Demon Seed, pretty fucking schloky but fucked up in the same sort of cronenberg way
Have you seen that Maps to the Stars? I feel like I should give it a go because it's Cronenburg but I don't know anything about it other than the hollywood setting which I don't think I care about
nope, if youre very into weird shit tho and havent seen it already, check out his adaptation of Naked Lunch, plenty of bizarre shit, because well, its based on naked lunch. even if you havent read the book tho i think it's an enjoyable 2 hours
