Existenz (stylized as eXistenZ) is a 1999 science fiction horror film written, produced and directed by David Cronenberg. The film follows Allegra Geller (Jennifer Jason Leigh), a game designer who finds herself targeted by assassins while playing a virtual reality game of her own creation.
An international co-production between Canada, the United Kingdom, and France, it also stars Jude Law, Ian Holm, Don McKellar, Callum Keith Rennie, Sarah Polley, Christopher Eccleston, Willem Dafoe, and Robert A. Silverman.
I describe this movie to people as “moist,” and have never been contested. It’s a fun one.
I suppose, in a Cronenberg sort of way.
Yes! It’s a much better and goopy Videodrome.
Wat. Videodrome is 1000 times better. And at least twice as goopy.
Long live the new flesh!
I hate that word but it definitely fits here.
