The far more commercially successful The Matrix overshadowed David Cronenberg’s eXistenZ when it came out in 1999. Comparisons aren’t really fair however, since the two films are entirely different animals. Both involve virtual realities and groups of resistance fighters who stand against the use of technology as an escape from reality, but where The Matrix was a sleek action blockbuster with a brain, eXistenZ is more a mix of mystery thriller with (in true Cronenberg fashion) plenty of body horror thrown in.

Well, goddamn. This was something special to wake up to. I've been highly anticipating this one for some time. For those who are unaware, COSMOPOLIS is the new film from David Cronenberg and it stars none other than Robert Pattinson. Yes, THAT Robert Pattinson. It's a strange pairing to say the least, but Cronenberg has never been one to be...normal. It is based on a novel by the same name by author Don Delilo, which I highly recommend checking out.

David Cronenberg dropped a rather interesting comment to Shock Till You Drop. In their interview, STYD asked about the '09 rumors of a remake/reboot of The Fly. Cronenberg replied with this:

No it actually looks quite good! Empire broke the story, Watch the video below.
