The ending is so crazy


When Seth becomes infused with the machine itself. That was so crazy. What I like about the ending is how it ends so abruptly. There isn't a happy ending. Veronica kills Seth's mutated figure, and then...THE END.

Perfect.

Is this the one where at the end he yells "Help me, help me!"

That was the original 1958 version.

Saw this at a drive in movie in my teens. We had been drinking and cried our eyes out at the end.

Oh man... those are ancient days. As a kid and teen I loved going to the local drive-in. Fond memories of Friday Night Fright Nights, and double-feature Sean Connery James Bond flicks, the Sergio Leone westerns...

I live in BC Canada. There are still a couple of drive-ins left here. Last summer my wife and I made a special side trip to check one out as we were returning from a US road trip. The concession stand, the old-school ads for it that ran during the intermission... all that was missing was the big bulky speakers that you used to hang off the window since it is now all broadcast via the radio.

Did you ever get mosquitoes coming in through the gap in the window due to the speaker? And, if you did, you probably remember those green mosquito coils that you would light up on the dash...

Good times...

Thats Cronenberg. If you liked this I would recommend eXistenZ.
