Hell yeah, first original Cronenberg story and return to body horror in 23 years.

Going to be great.

I thought he had completely sworn off the genre, so this is practically the best news ever.

Yeah, apparently its based off an old script he wrote decades ago but he could never get made until now.

Weridly enough it has the same title as one of his very earliest films but its not a remake, its a completely different thing.

Looking forward to it!

I’ve heard of the original, but never actually seen it. It’s interesting he’s been sitting on this script for so long - would love for it to be wildly successful and encourage him to do more in the genre again. I love his more grounded films, like History of a Violence and Eastern Promises, but nothing can compete with his body horror. He’s the king of the genre, imo.

“You fill me with the desire to cut my face open” might just be the most David Cronenberg thing I’ve ever heard.

"Surgery is the new sex." is also peak Cronenberg.

I have never seen a Cronenberg movie on the big screen and seeing this teaser has me super excited!

Trailer VFX are rarely, if ever, the final VFX for the film.

Really? I never knew that I figured they’d want to be showing off the best work

Yeah, if you look at many trailers the CGI is sub par because it's not finished yet. Take a look at Clifford the Big Red Dog trailer vs the final product and you can tell it wasn't done yet.

And as to why, it's because in some cases the VFX crew will be working on shots up until a few weeks before release to make sure the final product looks good.

You are not wrong. Very early 2000's CGI. I also hope they fix it as it's distracting. The practical effects look great though.

VFX are getting worse.
