Cronenberg's knack for the intimate and the uncomfortable shines off newly waxed bodies in his 1996 film Crash. With an erotic vision of the machine-aged present, Crash follows various victims of car accidents as they indulge in their gas-guzzling and passionate desires, stalking each other on moonlit highways and retreating to the back seat. Join your hosts Krishiv and Erich as they talk about Marshall McLuhan, H.R. Giger, and our own dependence on the automobile.
