In this one hour preview of the upcoming six-class Morbid Anatomy course, filmmaker and author Chris Alexander will give an energetic, edifying overview of maverick Canadian director David Cronenberg's entire oeuvre, from his early days of sexually deviant parasitic plagues, phallic armpit vampires, television-induced terror and Kafka-esque mutations through his more dramatic and psychologically shocking thrillers right up to his most recent, painfully personal work. Get a taste of the instructor's style and explore the foundations of one of world cinema's most daring and singular auteurs.
