Trailer: Cosmpolis
Wow, Cosmpolis. This is the kind of surreal, sexy, disturbing David Cronenberg movie I've been missing for so many years. Not that I haven't enjoyed his output as of late, as A History of Violence and Eastern Promises in particular are two pretty amazing movies, but we haven't had a taste of the old Cronenberg since eXistenZ, and that was 1999. Cosmopolis looks to tell quite an odd, labyrinthine story with Robert Pattinson's Eric Packer at the center as a billionaire cruising in his ridiculously futuristic limo on a weird trek that will involve a dude in a rat costume somehow.

5:00 PM on 08.16.2012 Review: CosmopolisI've always been a big defender of Robert Pattinson. My argument is that he's a reasonably normal person and a solid actor that got trapped by the Twilight franchise playing a character he himself admits is really pretty...

12:00 PM on 07.12.2012 Trailer: CosmopolisSo the early reports of Cosmopolis out of Cannes painted it as kind of a middle of the road affair, but I'm still super excited. I mean, it's David Cronenberg getting back to some of that classic weirdness I've always l...

10:00 AM on 05.04.2012 Concept art from David Cronenberg's unmade Total RecallEven though there's a new Total Recall coming out, I'm sure all of us have fond, three-breasted memories of the Paul Verhoeven version starring Arnold Schwarzenegger.

5:00 PM on 11.23.2011 Review: A Dangerous MethodDavid Cronenberg's said in interviews that he considers himself a card-carrying existentialist. While it's a broad school of thought that encapsulates everyone from Kierkegaard and Nietzsche to Dostoyevsky and Camus, there is...
