Just watched Dead Ringers (1988) directed by David Cronenberg. His seventh movie. First movie of the psychological/existential phase. Itβs about twin gynecologists who spiral into madness. Terrible movie. Donβt watch it π 3/10 #nodereviews

Succinct and informative review. Stuck to the point and didn't waste my time. 9.5/10

One good scene at 49mins. The dream sequence. Rest is trash π
I was waiting for this review π€
What are your thoughts on this one?
Which one?
The dream sequence where they are attached by the abdomen and one of them starts eating the attachment π
I forgot. I tried rewatching I didnβt get that far. π
I was waiting for Cronenbergβs signature action/suspense/thrills. Nothing happened. Watched a plastic surgeon whine and cry lmao
I think you might be enter his critical acclaim, yet turd stretch
More turds coming up? Oh no
That is why I said I like his early stuff but the taste makers prefer later Cronenberg very New Yorker.
History of Violence and Eastern promises though. Both in his third phase of crime and crame. Excellent stuff. Even Crimes of the future.
Maybe his second wave of existential movies is mostly terrible? π
*crime and drama
I liked those but history violence is very ghey too π
I forget. I think I saw once π
All the gangsters seemed pretty ghey to me. π€£
Directors who stay consistently good throughout their career are rare π
He tricked me with all the horror movies at first lol. Wasnβt expecting something that bad
Wait till you get to spider π at least imo
Naked lunch? The next one

Existenz sounds good. Crash could be good. Could be weird. π¬
Boring, gay, but some interesting special effects
