Still one of Cronenberg's best flicks, period. (Maybe only THE FLY is better for me, honestly.)

Crockett: "The US is falling apart, partially bc he's allowing for killings in the street, but also bc we have a 34 count convicted felon being shielded from any type of accountability as it relates to a child sex trafficking ring. I don't understand why we're pretending any of this is normal."
