Cronenberg is technically a horror director, but I think of him more as a sci-fi director. The Fly is one of my 50 favorite movies. The movie is not only horrific, it is emotionally devastating. Goldblum's monologue about a dream of being human is perhaps the most haunting monologue in any movie. You are watching his humanity slowly get stripped away. "If you stay I will hurt you."

Looks like I might have to push ‘A History of Violence’ up in the queue.

I was young, hoping for a mindless creature-feature outing and it was my first taste of David Cronenberg. At the time I didn’t get want I wanted. But upon each viewing since then, its grown on me. Big time. To the point of little details I missed, making it feel like I'm watching it for the first time again… and again. It's simple in its set-up, but really engages on an emotional level. Thanks a lot to the chemistry between Goldblum and Davis. Cronenberg's remake is pure visionary that successfully splices a real sensitive side with plain unpleasantness and tragedy. Don’t know if anybody else could beat it, let alone match it. |

It has went from good to great for me over the years though and for similar reasons. |

The Brood - 8.5/10
The Fly - 8/10
Been a while since I watched these:
Shivers - 7/10
Rabid - 7/10
Scanners - 7/10
Hard for me to judge these since I haven't watched them recently
but I wasn't that interested in them
The Dead Zone - 6/10
Dead Ringers - 5/10
Naked Lunch - 5/10
I am not sure I have watched Videodrome--I guess I have only watched scenes from it.
I still haven't seen his damn race car movie.
I think the Brood is his best overall horror movie.
It's gross but the most mainstream and might be the best Canadian horror film--made by someone born in Canada with a mostly Canadian cast (not the main leads though).
There's not much competition for that honor.
