What a crazy world we live in. In one corner of the globe, an executive assassin society plots a sunrise duel whilst in front of the Eiffel Tower using the nicest number cards I’ve ever seen while wearing three piece suits.

I rarely go the movies first thing in the morning but man what a great way to start the day. I watched in awe as Brandon Cronenberg once again delivered a strange, hypnotic trip into surreal and weird horror. He is slowly making his mark on a genre that I hold near and dear to my film heart.
