I'm hungry... for LOVE!

Last night, I saw David Cronenberg's first feature-length film, SHIVERS, aka ATTACK OF THE BLOOD PARASITES, aka THEY CAME FROM WITHIN. It's about a parasite that's part aphrodisiac, part venereal disease, and it causes mindless, uncontrollable sexual desire in its host. Imagine SLITHER if the slugs caused zombie incest rape orgies.

I blame you, Canada.

You're just jealous of our zombie incest rape orgies.

There was a Law & Order: SVU episode about that. You don't need parasites for uncontrollable incest orgies - just a brain tumor that's hitting the sexy part of your brain. Of course, that's never enough with Cronenberg.

THEY CAME FROM WITHIN is the horror evolution of the sexpollen concept.

And I approve, in a very feebed out way, because IT SHOULD BE HORROR.

Ah Shivers. I caught it one night with my buddy Allan and I believe by the end we just started cheering "Rape! Rape! Rape!" whenever we saw a non-infected person. Good times....good times.
