#142 The Brood
Directed by David Cronenberg
Year 1979
This guy again. The Boss of Body Horror has 10 films in the Top 1000 and is already making his 3rd appearance with the best of his early work. His other films from the 70s have poor acting, but this has Oliver Reed and Samantha Eggar and everyone else rises to meet them. Meanwhile, the story covers two of his biggest themes. Sterile facilities meant to heal often use treatments that destroy a person both mentally and physically, and our bodies may turn against us. There is nothing more chilling than an unexplained change to our physical makeup.
