 NAKED
LUNCH
With
Peter
Weller,
Judy
Davis,
Ian
Holm,
Julian
Sands,
Roy
Scheider,
and
the
voice
of
Peter
Boretski
Directed
by
David
Cronenberg
Controversial
Beat
generation
writer
William
Burroughs’
book
of
the
same
title
has
been
deemed
“un-filmable”.
Those
making
that
claim
obviously
don’t
know
David
Cronenberg!
In
his
hands
the
abstract
tale
of
an
addicted
exterminator
entering
an
African
port
known
as
Interzone
(becoming
a
secret
agent),
does
not
seem
so
outlandish.
Furthermore,
he
made
the
genius
move
of
incorporating
biographical
facts
and
happenings
from
Burroughs’
life,
blending
it
into
the
surreal
story
where
sexual
bugs,
living
typewriter
agents
and
Mugwumps
(secreting
hallucinogenic
liquid)
co-exist.
Strange,
bizarre,
and
amazing
both
in
its
visually
and
narrative
-
another
great
addition
to
the
totally
unique
repertoire
of
Canada’s
most
incredible
director.
