25 Years Ago, Existenz Almost Beat The Matrix to the Punch
'The Matrix' defined cyberpunk for a generation, but it's Cronenberg's grotesque vision of the future, released just weeks later, that will haunt you long after the credits roll.

model_tar_gz, I watched this movie with my girlfriend tripping balls on wicked good acid.
It fucked me up for a good long while. 17/10 definitely don’t recommend but it was a good weird time.
Tar_alcaran, I was completely sober, but it had the same effect
mindbleach, It also does Baudrillard better than the movie that used his book as a prop. When Morpheus says “welcome to the desert of the real,” the end of this movie is what that term actually means.
hashferret, Whereas World on a Wire actually did.
Rolando, Don’t remember much about Existenz, except that it was kind of boring. Really liked Cronenberg’s Videodrome and Naked Lunch.
gregorum, I liked eXistenz better, although The Matrix was cooler.
