    Scanners is better than The Fury indeed, but Taratino doesn't seem to get that they're very different movies besides the mental powers thing. De Palma's movie is spectacularly filmed, but it's a more typical thriller about government conspiracies. Cronenberg's movie, on the other hand, is tematically more interesting because it deals with the consequences of medical research in private corporations, among other things. It also has a stark, cold atmosphere that I really like. On the other hand, I agree with Tarantino about Marilyn Chambers in Rabid. She was very good in that movie.

While he is the most powerful in filmmaking and does what Cronenberg and Carpenter Scorsese are known for as well and maybe better.@@oedipamaas2067

No specific ones, just surprise me. I am glad he picked Scanners though because I really enjoy it. The criterion copy also has probably the coolest box art next to repo man and silence of the lambs, both of which are also in my collection.

    But all the stuff that Quentin is championing in Rabid was already present in Cronenberg's first feature, They Come from Within/Shivers. Infection spreading and everything. When I first saw Rabid I was disppointed because I'd already seen that stuff in Shivers and I thought that was the rougher and more interesting film. Quentin's not wrong about Rabid, but I'm shocked he hadn't seen Shivers.

      Like M. Butterfly or A History of Violence, Eastern Promises is a compelling drama but it’s not what one typically classifies a “Cronenberg film”.

      Please explain what there is to like about this movie? I just don’t get it. It’s One of the worst and dumbest films I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s filled with plot holes, totally unbelievable, he did absolutely no research whatsoever and it’s filled with senseless violence just for the sake of it - he literally built the entire film around that stupid bath-house scene. Vigo’s character was the only slightly interesting/redeeming quality of the film. Otherwise it was a hot steaming pile of garbage. I want two hours of my life back.

      ​@@walkerhull8405I love every shot of Easetern Promises so it will be difficult for me to summarise. I love the way on first viewing you feel like Vigos character is a good guy despite tons of evidence to the contrary, and on repeat viewings you can focus on the lengths to which he is going to remain undercover. Also the graphic violence and sex scenes are filmed in such a way that i feel like i understand the gravity of each situation whereas in most films i would just remain desensitized.

    no mention of Videodrome is simply absurd, which makes sense, considering this is Tarantino. "best part of Scanners is that whole opening 20 minutes, where all the agents are out there trying to kill each other." of course that's your favorite part of the movie, Tarantino, of course LOL

    I had to look this director up, Videodrome gave me the feeling Quentin had when I was a kid. I'm not a movie person at all, hardly watch anything since 1995. Naked Lunch (liked movie better than book, hardly ever have said that), The Dead Zone and Videodrome were interesting to me. Seen The Fly but that didn't catch me, may have to look at a few more. Did see scanners as well.

      @@fnordiumendures138 but I think that's exactly the point. You see, anyone who has seen his earlier bizarre, surrealist films would find movies like Eastern Promises or A History of Violence as offbeat for him, but he did them and he was great. I felt they were truly mature work, not by its content but by artistic values.

    Do people here think that because Tarintinos films are entertaining that makes them not as good as serious movies or what? Just a little advice for you, people who actually like proper cinephile arthouse films find those films entertaining too. And they also find Tarintino movies entertaining because their entertaining, just because his films are irrevant or not entitely serious doesnt make them less artistic in fact it makes them more so. Pulp Fiction is a more artistic film then cronenberg has ever made, your used to its structure so you think it's not that impressive but find a film that does the same thing that Pulp Fiction does. And in fact look at all the films that tried and failed in the late 90s early 00s.
