Crash
Known for his provocative and transgressive style, David Cronenberg’s films, like The Fly and Videodrome, blend body horror with psychological thrills. The NC-17-rated Crash from 1996 adapts J.G. Ballard’s novel, exploring the fetishistic, discomforting world of individuals deriving erotic feelings from car accidents, bridging fear and desire. In the movie, love scenes are intertwined with violent crash incidents, emphasizing the characters’ unique bond with automotive trauma.
