Two bodies, two minds, one soul, all Cronenberg. A twisted tale of bodies, science, and love that could only come from the Canadian master.
The chilling story of identical twin gynecologists—suave Elliot and sensitive Beverly, disparate sides of one personality—who share the same practice, the same apartment, the same women. When a new patient challenges their eerie bond, they descend into a whirlpool of sexual confusion, drugs, and madness. [116 min; horror, sci-fi; English]
"A masterpiece." — Entertainment Weekly
"An astonishing tour de force—especially for [Jeremy] Irons, whose sense of nuance is so refined that one can tell in a matter of seconds which twin he is playing in a particular scene." — Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader
"The gentleness of Cronenberg's direction subtly offsets the torrential psychological damage done by his twin sexual psychopaths. Family here is like poison, slowly released into the bloodstream." — Scott Tafoya, Brooklyn Magazine
