Rabid

Horror Sci-Fi

1977, Movie, 1h 31min

David Cronenberg cemented his reputation as one of the most daring directors of his generation with his deeply disturbing second foray into the body-horror genre. After undergoing radical emergency surgery, Rose (former adult-film star Marilyn Chambers in her first leading role in a mainstream film) develops an insatiable desire for blood. She searches out and seduces victims to satisfy her incurable craving, infecting them with an unknown disease that swiftly drives them insane . . . and makes them equally bloodthirsty. In its shocking fusion of sexuality and violence, RABID stands as one of the most audacious horror films of the 1970s.

...Cronenberg’s sleaziest, funniest film, jammed with juicy gore, infectious shocks and a splendidly unnecessary Santa massacre.

It was fairly obvious to me that Cronenberg plus zombies would equal undiluted awesomeness, and so it did. I really don't get why people aren't more fond of this early effort from the master of body horror. Loved it.

Cronenberg fortsätter utforska ”kroppsskräck” och sexualitet och denna gång med en porrfilmsaktris i huvudrollen! Att ta ut svängarna och vara gränslös är rubriken för ”kanadicken”!

What is Rabid about? Toggle content

In this sci-fi horror film, a young woman named Rose undergoes an experimental surgery after a motorcycle accident, which results in a strange mutation that allows her to survive only on human blood. She soon becomes a monster, preying on unsuspecting victims and spreading an epidemic of rabies-like symptoms throughout the city. As panic sets in and the government implements martial law, Rose's boyfriend Hart and a team of doctors race against time to find a cure before it's too late. But Rose remains in denial about her role in the outbreak, and her insatiable thirst for blood has devastating consequences for those around her. With its blend of gore, suspense, and social commentary, this film is a must-see for fans of the genre.
