cronenberg did an adaptation of JG ballard's Crash novel... i thought that was a neat choice, considering how dark the theme. i'm interested to see what other films he's directed

Cronenberg has turned an interesting corner in his career with his two latest films: A History of Violence and Eastern Promises. They are somewhat more rooted in reality than the bodyhorror genre he helped create (The Fly, Videodrome, etc.)

His best film, to my mind, is still Dead Ringers mostly thanks to Jeremy Iron's stunning double-performance as the twins.
