Poll question: David Cronenberg-Which film is the Cronenbergiest of them all?

[ghostsofgiants]

1. Videodrome is my favourite

Absolutely brilliant movie. Don't know if it's the "Cronenbergiest" though.

[chickenscratching]

2. very brilliant

cronenberg is amazing, and deliciously disturbing.

4. Indeed

Have you seen the short film "Camera" on the Videodrome Criterion dvd? If not, I really recommend it.

[Richard Steele]

7. The FLY was my fave, but 'fave' wasn't the question. VIDEODROME...

...is definitely the 'Cronenbergiest' of the poll options.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

8. All hail the new flesh.

(This is the translation of a translation so it may not be the realk last words of the movie. What were them?)

[Madame X]

3. The Brood, of course

I don't see how you could have possible forgotten it! :shrug:

5. Dead Ringers is DC's best by several long shots.

"Crash" was an insult. No exploration of motive, no real meaningful character expository, just two hours of wreck-a-car-and-fuck. JG Ballard should get to cockpunch Cronenberg for that travesty.

Hey, how's come yr poll doesn't have "Existenz?" It's pretty textbook Cronenberg.

6. Holly Hunter?

Lovely actress, but she didn't sell me in Crash, thereby ruining the whole film for me.

Naked Lunch wins. Filming the unfilmable. A noble failure. Much like Gilliam's Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. Neither is a great movie, but both are highly enjoyable and well worth watching.

9. if you liked fear and loathing

go for 'where the buffalo roam' poor production, but bill murray does an impressive hst.
and frankenstein guy, what's his name> oh peter boyle, he does very well, as well.
and as well again.

10. I voted "Videodrome", but "eXistenZ" is a close second, in my book. n/t

[4_Legs_Good]

11. Dead Ringers is one of my favorites

Absolutely brilliant!
