Cockroach Typewriter

Naked Lunch- is a cronenberg film, it has all of his signautre tropies- horror, sci-fi, insane, crazy, psychological, suspense and drama. This one has to be one of the crazies films he has ever done. Its really insane.

The Plot: Blank-faced bug killer Bill Lee (Peter Weller) and his dead-eyed wife, Joan (Judy Davis), like to get high on Bill's pest poisons while lounging with Beat poet pals. After meeting the devilish Dr. Benway (Roy Scheider), Bill gets a drug made from a centipede. Upon indulging, he accidentally kills Joan, takes orders from his typewriter-turned-cockroach, ends up in a constantly mutating Mediterranean city and learns that his hip friends have published his work -- which he doesn't remember writing.

Naked Lunch has since become a cult film, acclaimed for its surrealistic visual and thematic elements.

Its a crazy movie. A must see film.

Melanie Lynskey recommended Wet Hot American Summer (2001) in Movies (curated)

"Possibly the next one would be Wet Hot American Summer. It’s probably a movie I’ve seen more than the other one. And it’s funny. The cast is insane. There’s so many great people and they’re all at their absolute funniest. There’s so many moments of absurdity that really get me; they just make me giggle so much. It’s so, so, so funny. I’ve watched it a million times."

"You couldn’t get away with making that movie today. It’s wild. It’s a wild film, and it’s the great American dream gone wrong. It’s Citizen Kane on its ass. It’s a man who comes from nothing and builds a world and loses an empire and finds love. I mean, it’s a huge movie; and absolutely insane. I watch that several times a year — it’s a go-to on the road."

Decent but not surprising

Overall a decent movie. There was not that twisty storyline that kept me engaged. There was a slight expected twist towards the end, but nothing that blew my mind away. Simon Pegg did a decent job, but his body transformation for the role was insane. Atmosphere was good, not great. Its a good Saturday early evening watch before a true blockbuster Thriller.
