David Cronenberg = THE MAN[views:1673][posts:7]__________________________________ [Dec 13,2005 7:13pm - litacore ""] ok, I just Netflix-ed 'The Brood' CASE CLOSED. Cronenberg is one of the best horror directors. EVER. sure, he's had a few clunkers but jumpin' jehosophat--COMBINATION OF SMART WITH GORY??? sign me up. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 13,2005 7:21pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] he's horror? I always thought he was just peculiar I mean, Crash isn't horror |

| ______________________________________ [Dec 13,2005 7:40pm - BlackoutRick ""] Yes, Cronenburg does in fact kick ass. I never saw the Brood but I heard it was good. I have a list of some of my favs. Scanners (duh) The Fly (The old one was good too but...this one rules!!) Dead Ringers Spider (Fuckin weird Ralph Fiennes) Naked Lunch Yeah, definately a weird director/writer but no denying his genious. |
| _________________________________________________ [Dec 13,2005 8:00pm - the_taste_of_cigarettes ""] Naked Lunch wasn't horror either. Naked Lunch kicks ass, it blows away the book and is a much tighter plot line by far. |
| ______________________________________ [Dec 14,2005 1:07pm - BlackoutRick ""] That is the first time I heard the movie was better than the book. I can believe it though considering Burroughs was fucked up. And yes, not all of Cronenburg's stuff is horror but brilliant none the less. |
