Fantasy Sci-Fi with a twist

This movie is out there but it is a classic Sci-Fi fantasy title with an eerie setting. Best watched in the dark after the sun has set. One of its tag lines; "... makes The Matrix seem like child's play"; may be a stretch, but it is definitely worth picking up if you love Sci-Fi and have not seen it yet.

worth every penny

I'm a big fan of Jude Law, so I might just be saying this because he is in the movie, but eXistenZ is worth watching over and over. There are things I notice every time I watch it. If you love gaming, and you want something that is a little more edgy, and will keep you thinking about it long after the movie is over, this film is for you. If you like psychological thrillers, cute guys, and games, you can't go wrong with eXistenZ

How did you know my name??

What a weird, creepy, bit of fun this is! It is reminiscent of "Naked Lunch" (and why not? Cronenberg did THAT one, too!). The game within a game within a game was Excellent! I find it odd that it was a flop at the Box-Office. I first saw "ExistenZ" the year it first came out on VHS, and enjoyed it immensely. Of course, I'm biased, because I'm a HUGE fan of David Cronenberg's works. Where David Lynch uses a feather floating on air, David Cronenberg uses a sledgehammer (of course, AFTER he has given it his trademark "biomechanical" look)!

Some would say it has a passing resemblance to films such as "The Matrix", but I see it as totally unique. As in "Naked Lunch", we are treated to a trip through Cronenberg's twisted mind, where nothing is as it seems to be. Seeing it through the eyes of Ted Pikul (Jude Law), is this live? Or is it Memorex? Cronenberg leaves you to decide, but for just a little while, when you are treated to another "reality"! Good ol' Ted is being led around by Allegra Geller (Jennifer Jason Leigh), the creator of "ExistenZ", the newest VR game to hit the streets. There are others who take exception to this, however, and try to kill allegra. Ted is forced to do things he would not normally do, but he is pressed into protecting Allegra.

This film is just a lot of fun! Oddities abound. The Uh...weapons, are....unique? Ted's rush to build one, at a restaurant is alternately cool and disgusting. "ExistenZ" is a must-see for Cronenberg fans, as well as anyone who would like an intriguing thriller/horror film!
