this feels like early cronenberg really starting to lock into his style. it’s not just horror, it leans more into anger, family, and how that kind of damage can take shape in really disturbing ways. it’s tense, cold, and a bit strange at times, but that all works in its favor. the performances keep it grounded while everything else gets more unsettling. i loved the ending, i was fully locked in and it just worked for me. it’s genuinely creepy and way more interesting than a typical horror film. you can already see how strong his style is here and where he takes it later
