The celebrated king of body horror, David Cronenberg, returns to the genre he helped define after a long absence with his new feature, Crimes of the Future. It is a film that is a vision distinctly and uniquely his own. It has a talented and attractive cast. It comes back to body horror in a big way, and yet the film narratively underwhelms.
Consider creating your first feature-length movie. With a first-time feature director. In a global pandemic. During the middle of the ice storm of the century. And then debuting it in one of the premiere horror festivals in the world! Happy to say, you nailed it! Listen in to our interview with the cast and crew of The Summoned for their take on the great adventure that is movie-making.
