Crimes of the Future (David Cronenberg – 2022) C+

Weird and has that signature Cronenberg style that mixes sex with body horror and dark themes. Set in a future where humans are evolving, growing new organs and using that for profit through…performance art. Evolution takes different forms and there seems to be a group of people evolving to consume inorganic material (you know like paint or plastic…). All very cool setups and I am not going to say I did not enjoy watching the movie and the excellent performances from Viggo Mortensen and Lea Seydoux but it did nor feel like a film that coalesced to much in the end. Weirdly enough I’d like to see more of this world that Cronenberg built if he chooses to make more.
