EEEEW. i admit. i'm 49 years old and afraid of sex. don't ask. it's so sad. this movie scared and nauseated me when i first saw it as a kid back in the 70's. i mean it really freaked me out so bad i sometimes wonder if this film had a hand in making me suspicious of sex. i don't even know why they let me and my brother into the theater in the first place. we didn't have a guardian with us. we saw it on a double bill with 'Rabid' starring Marilyn Chambers. i think we had our dad's permission. or maybe it was just the 70's and nobody really cared.
i remember the first time i saw a porno movie when i was fifteen (it was on an old home movie projector),the first thing that came to mind was this frick'in flick. and i remember getting kind of freaked out. the first time i made out i thought about this movie. man. stuff like this can mess you up if you let it.
when i first started to realize who David Cronenberg was i remembered this weirdo film and was immediately suspicious of him. it took me a while to warm up to him, but now i love Cronenberg films and 'Dead Zone' is one of the best no doubt.
early Cronenberg films explored the subject and nature of sex. 'Within', the memorable 'VideoDrome', and 'The Brood', were all very sexual in nature, if not almost down right dirty. 'It Came From Within' is a film that is about the rational mind at war with the out of control sexual libido.
a lot of people have called me a repressed prude. maybe so. but i know psychology, and i try to keep a open mind. a certain amount of repression is only civilized, but too much repression can drive you to an polar extreme so you should be careful. but sex is a hot potato. this movie is a testament to that.
and after seeing it you may never french kiss anyone ever again.EEEEW.
