Shivers (1975) aka They Came From Within, directed by David Cronenberg, Arrow uncut remaster, encoded in 10 bit HEVC with AAC sound, including original theatrical mono, two commentary tracks, and English and Spanish subtitles.
Notice : This is a new upload that adds two commentary tracks and Spanish subtitles from the Vestron release. Image and original theatrical mono are identical to my previous upload.
IMDb : https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073705/
Video encoded in two-pass 10.5 Mbps x265 10bit with the veryslow preset for archive quality image.
English SDH subtitles OCRed, proofed and corrected. Spanish subtitles converted to VobSub and repositioned.
Note : David Cronenberg's third feature, and his first really commercial film, became a huge box office success, but was so controversial for its sexual and violent content that it was debated in the Canadian Parliament (it had received some government funding). It's a fresh and original sexual take on the (sort of) zombie genre, with the trademark Cronenberg obsessions of parasites, body and instinct vs. intellect and societal norms, and the ending is cheerfully nihilistic. There's also original scream queen Barbara Steele in a smaller role.
A modernist apartment complex outside of Montreal is visited by a rash of murders, illness, and strange occurrences, and the complex' doctor tracks it to an old university professor of his who was working on turning parasitic organisms into artificial human organs, before dying in a bizarre murder-suicide at the building. However, as things start going out of hand, the professor's colleague studies his notes and finds a more radical agenda: A parasitic treatment that exudes aphrodisiac drugs and makes the host more primal, an attempt to make humanity more instinctual, less intellectual, and much more sexual. And the parasites are spreading.
This remaster by the Toronto International Film Festival isn't fantastic. I feel it's considerably too bright, it's not very clean, and there's very prominent grain and in some parts quite a bit of flicker. However, it's perhaps as good a copy as we're going to get of this cult classic. The mono sound is fine, shame there's no commentary track or anything, Cronenberg's typically quite interesting to listen to.
