Review of Naked Lunch (1991) by Anthony L — 31 Dec 2012
New Year's Resolution: Get 1000 ratings on RT.
Although it is not officially the New Year yet, I thought I'd start with a review of Naked Lunch. Being only the second Cronenberg movie I'd seen (the first being The Fly), I didn't know what to expect. The result: one of the most odd and bizzare films I've ever seen. Peter Weller, who's well known as Robocop, gives an outstanding performance as Bill Lee, an exterminator turned writer who suffers from "unorthodox hallucinogens" as RT calls it, and starts to see bugs that speak to him about a certain man named Dr. Benway. Naked Lunch may not be one of the best films of all time, but it's uniqueness and "artsiness" are two sure reasons to see this film.
