Word of David's "eXistenZ" from the frozen wastes of the North!!!

OK,geeks here's some word on old David's latest, with a big time spoiler sooooo if you don't want toooooo know stop now. STOP!!! IT HURTS!!! STOP...

Hey, wussup man?

I don't know if this interests you, but I just came home from the Canadian premiere screening of Cronenberg's eXistenZ.

ok, i'm only 16, male, work at video store, looove film : faves include Poltergeist & Brazil (tie)

N E WAYS!!!!

EXISTENZ!!!!!!!!!!!

This movie is supremely original, i forgive cronenberg after Crash for this film. it is tight, well acted, seriously creepy, and a notable social commentary on today's society.

There is Mucho gore here, we've got gurgling intestinal "game pods" , lots of closeups of shootings involving a "tooth-gun" (!?) and lotsa intestinal stuff strewn across the screen. The censors are gonna have a frield day with this one.

On the downside, it's not the "F/X-Fest" publicized, it has some nifty creature effects, but no VR (thank the Lord) the ending is....want me to give it away?

WARNING!!!

SPOILER AHEAD!!!

WARNING!!!

WARNING, SPOILERS!!!

WARNING!!! SPOILERS AHEAD!!!

A big twist.

A big joke, until.....the second twist which switches itself into a reverse of the films main characters i mean... good guy=bad guy, bad guy=good guy.

ok, well, i have school tomorrow, just thought i'd let ya know: If they market it right, eXistenZ will work, if they market it as a teen thriller, their all bloody doomed.

Later, "da polterguy"
