March CRIMES OF THE FUTURE



all technical problems fixed, this month we've a brand new lineup of film goodness, plus we're re-showing the few that went wrong last month, so:

David Cronenberg's CRIMES OF THE FUTURE (1970)
details the wanderings of Tripod (Mlodzik), sometime director of a dermatological clinic called the House of Skin, who is searching for his mentor, the mad dermatologist Antoine Rouge. Rouge has disappeared following a catastrophic plague re...sulting from cosmetic products, which has killed the entire population of sexually mature women. Tripod joins a succession of organisations including Metaphysical Import-Export and the Oceanic Podiatry Group, and meets various individuals and groups of men who are trying to adjust themselves to a defeminized world. Written, shot and directed DIY style by the young Cronenberg
