发狂的现代史

...

　　Anna is stuck: she's approaching 30, living like a hermit in her mum's garden shed and wondering why the suffragettes ever bothered. She spends her days making videos using her thumbs as actors - thumbs that bicker about things like whether Yogi Bear is a moral or existential nihilist. But Anna doesn't show these videos to anyone and no one knows what they are for. A week before her birthday her Mum serves her an ultimatum - she needs to move out of the shed, get a haircut that doesn't put her gender in question and stop dressing like a homeless teenager. Naturally, Anna tells her Mum to "back the f-off". However, when her school friend comes to visit, Anna's self-imposed isolation becomes impossible to maintain. Soon she is entangled with a troubled eight year old boy obsessed with Westerns, and the local estate agent whose awkward interpersonal skills continually undermine his attempts to seduce her.

　　影片改编自艾拉·莱文的同名小说，讲述1968年著名恐怖片《罗斯玛丽的婴儿》的前传故事。　　年轻舞者Terry Gionoffrio（朱莉娅·加纳 Julia Garner 饰）遭受了毁灭性伤害，当一对富有的老夫妇承诺给她成名机会后，她发现自己被黑暗力量所吸引。

　　加拿大导演戴维．克罗南伯格执导的本片，主要描写骇人听闻的疯狗病，受传染的人会口吐绿液，双眼发光，并且见人乱咬，几个小时后即不治而亡。美国著名的“性”星玛里琳．查姆伯丝扮演的罗丝小姐幼时曾患过疯狗病，因车祸受伤引起病毒复发，腋下竟然不可思议地长出一个嘴巴，而且内有一个可伸缩自如的肉刺，专用来插到别人身上吸血。于是，她在一个接一个吸别人血的同时，也把疯狗病迅速传播，使城市瞬间成为疯人满布的人间地狱……　　影片评价　　仅仅就身体变异而言，克隆伯格的独特之处在于处处不忘对色情幻想进行扭曲，无论是《狂犬病》（Rabid）中女主角必须由腋下长出一只阴茎来对其阴道作出支撑，还是《录像带谋杀案》（Videodrome）中男主角长出阴道般的裂口，都是这种扭曲的必然，连录像带的转子，都像双乳一样扭动。《录像带谋杀案》其实还有一个原来设想的结局，就是一男（男主角麦克斯）两女（尼基和卞卡）合体，同时以各自的变异性器官相互绞缠吞噬。在《赤裸的午餐》(Naked lunch)中，那个最终撕开男性外皮露出女体乳房的总裁如果还不够刺激，等你意识到她的装束是女同施虐的标准配备，就会有格外的颤栗。
