David Cronenberg Appreciation Month - "Crimes Of The Future (2022)"
Episode 165
Monday, 2 February, 2026
An all new Appreciation Month is upon us here at Cinema Degeneration and this time we are delving into the twisted works and mind of the one and only Canadian filmmaker David Cronenberg whose career started in the late 1960's! It's a month long celebration of all things body horror, strange killers, telekinesis, rampant diseases, sexual perversions, more body horror, technological mutations, oh and did we mention body horror??? Our 1st episode is on a very intense thriller and more recent directorial effort with the shocking 2022 release "CRIMES OF THE FUTURE". Starring Viggo Mortensen, Lea Seydoux, and Kristen Stewart. It's an odd tale of an alternative future where the human body has learned to adapt to an overly synthetic environment with new organ transformations and mutations. Thus, turning these new mutations into avant-garde performance pieces to a public where 'surgery is the new sex.' Not for the squeamish or faint of heart, we assure you. If that doesn't sound intriguing to you, then you've got to check your pulse because you may already be dead. Our deep dive discussion and dissection on this film is headed off by Patty and Cameron Scott, the married duo with a deep love of the mad and the macabre. Buckle in because it's going to be a wild ride! "What we're doing is making art out of anarchy. We're creating meaning out of emptiness."
