DEAD RINGERS (Cronenberg, 1988)
medical horror is definitely cronenberg’s specialty. this one rates not as horrible or terrifying as one would expect, it’s more creepy and depressing than anything. jeremy irons is amazing in this, playing identical twins, and the story and visuals are excellent. great effects. plus a couple of moments right out of “the brood”. so much fun to watch these movies together. goodbye, filmstruck!
