David Cronenberg...
...I just don't know about his movies.
I watched Naked Lunch a few nights ago. I still can't figure out whether I enjoyed it or not. I like watching and reading surreal, original things (I AM an Oddworld fan, after all), but if it goes too far, it's more irritating than interesting (like David Lynch's Inland Empire). There's something about people and typewriters turning into giants insects that had a disturbing charm about it, though. I'm starting to think I liked the movie in a masochistic way.
Well, life would certainly be more interesting if my laptop suddenly transformed into a beetle and said, "The other patrons of your home are Interzone agents, Mandy. You must get rid of them. Write a report when you've accomplished your mission." Where's the yellow bug powder when you need it?
