New Year, New Horror : Infinity Pool [2023]
Lockdown 2 Electric Avenue Part 3
Part 3. Things to make and do in Lockdown : Watch Possessor
Brandon Cronenberg follows up his prescient 2012 Antiviral movie with Possessor, a new film about brain implants starring reigning scream queen, Andrea Riseborough, fresh out of Mandy. Coming from the man whose last cinematic theme was the sale of celebrity viruses to their obsessive fans, you have to ask yourself, does he know something about the future that we don't?
Possessor treads a similar path to his father's, David Cronenberg's science fiction horror work, in what may seem far fetched today may be perfectly acceptable tomorrow - until there are unintended technological and biological consequences.
