The Late Show
David Cronenberg’s triumphant and disturbing return to the body horror genre in which he made his name, CRIMES OF THE FUTURE is the darkly disturbing futuristic story of a radical, surgical performance artist (Mortensen) and his partner (Seydoux) who begin a dangerous relationship with a government agent (Stewart) in pursuit of a group of ‘radical evolutionists.’
“Thoughtful, poignant, confusing, funny, sexy, gross – it’s a lot.” – Sarah Cleary, Little White Lies
“Hypnotic, maddening, pervy and disturbing. In other words, vintage Cronenberg. The doomy slow-burn won’t be to all tastes, but its abstract, feverish images are pure nightmare fuel.” – Simon Crook, Empire Magazine
