Crimes of the Future Interview: David Cronenberg Encourages Watching It at Home

David Cronenberg is a king of big screen body horror and his newest release, Crimes of the Future, lets him use that skill set to the fullest — and then some. The story takes place in the not-so-distant future when the body has adapted to the synthetic environment mankind created. Many have “accelerated evolution syndrome” like Viggo Mortensen’s Saul Tenser whose body continuously grows new organs. While these evolutionary changes are not widely accepted, there is a community that embraces them in the form of art. In Saul’s case, his partner Caprice (Léa Seydoux) removes these new organs surgically in front of a live crowd as performance art.  Check out this Crimes of the Future interview to hear all about Cronenberg and Scott Speedman’s experience making the film, and to get Cronenberg’s take on the future of movie theaters. #crimesofthefuture #davidcronenberg #kristenstewart For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCI
