The Future. The Canadian Academy for Erotic Inquiry is investigating the theories of parapsychologist Luther Stringfellow. Seven young adults submit to a form of brain surgery which removes their power of speech and increases their potential for telepathic communication.

An unseen group of students observes the results and as the experiment progresses further, Stringfellow's theories are borne out.

Later, aphrodisiacs and various frugs are introduced into the subjects' diet in order to expose an inherent 'polymorphous perversity'. Finally, the subject are isolated from each other with provokes a couple of suicides.

This first film of David Cronenberg was made when he was twenty-six and shot on the campus of the University of Toronto. Although created in a documentary style, the film shows birth of some of his cold, clinical and dark style trademarks.

A couples car breaks down on dark rainy night in the countryside and the two seek shelter in a nearby house. After knocking on the door they are welcomed as guests by the elderly owner who says she had been expecting them for dinner.

The maid of the house asks them to play up to the old woman, but the couple soon realize that she's just as crazy. As weird events and sounds continue to build, the couple go from wanting to leave into turning into the people they were asked to pretend to be.

This is an episode of the series Peep Show which was a CBC production created to attract and showcase new writing and directing talent for the network. Directed, but not written by Cronenberg, it is an effectively eerie piece that has the feel of a one-act play.

THE ITALIAN MACHINE is included on the same DVD

A motorcycle enthusiast becomes obsessed with acquiring a rare classic model currently in possession of a rich art collector. The enthusiast fumes at the prospect of the bike being used as mere decoration in the collector's house and devises a plan to get it for himself.

With the help of some friends, they poses as a group doing a magazine article and get into the rich man's house, but twisted deals still have to be made before the bike is able to leave the premises.

This is an episode of Teleplay which was a CBC anthology series created to encourage new writers to produce quality drama. David Cronenberg directs his own script that shows his fetishistic attitudes towards machines while also creating a commentary on what constitutes true art.

Although Rouge has disappeared (possibly a victim of the disease), his clinic The House of Skin is managed by loyal disciple Adrian Tripod, lost without his master's guidance.

With the remaining male population in psychic relapse, Tripod joins the Oceanic Podiatry Group's therapy program, but is approached by a man who leads a conspiracy of heterosexual paedophiles.

Their sole purpose is to impregnate a little girl brought prematurely to puberty to avoid Rouge's Malady. The girl is kidnapped, but no one in the group will impregnate her. Tripod is chosen but hesitates in front of her, sensing the presence of Antoine Rouge.....

That's right, you are one of approximately 2 million people who go up to
Canada's CN tower every year; a symbol of pride and structural achievement. Faster than a speeding bullet to the top, so to speak, a symbol of accomplishment, speed and strength representing success. A sign of co-operation.

Playing a slightly more analogue set than I expected. He did some wondrous work with his voice though, overlapping, dubbing and layering. Live.
