I murdered Mindy.

I murdered a lot of people.

Rose!

So I decided to try a

little experiment to

prove that you were

wrong about all that.

You see? I'm being very

positive, aren't I?

So I found myself a partner

for my experiment,

a normal, healthy guy,

and I took a little of his

blood... just a bit...

and I've locked

myself in with him.

I'm going to stay here with him until

I'm sure he's not going to get sick.

And then I'll know that I'm not

the one who started it all.

Rose, look. You gotta get

out of there, right away.

You're commiting

suicide, you know that?

Hart, I just want you to be

with me over the phone...

I mean just a few hours,

just until I find out.

I mean we can live together

over the phone, can't we?

Oh, please. Listen.

Please.

Rose! Get out of there!

Please, Rose, just drop the

phone and walk over to the door

and run outta that place

as fast as you can.

You're not giving

us enough time...

No, Hart.

Listen...

Hart...

Get out of there!

- I'm afraid.

- Run!

Hart!

David Cronenberg

David Paul Cronenberg, CC OOnt FRSC (born March 15, 1943) is a Canadian filmmaker, actor and author. Cronenberg is one of the principal originators of what is commonly known as the body horror or visceral horror genre. This style of filmmaking explores people's fears of bodily transformation and infection. In his films, the psychological is typically intertwined with the physical. In the first half of his career, he explored these themes mostly through horror and science fiction, although his work has since expanded beyond these genres. His films have won numerous awards, including the Jury Prize at the Cannes Film Festival for his film Crash (1996). more…
