NEW WORLD PICTURES MONTH: Rabid (1977)
EDITOR’S NOTE: This was first on the site on July 17, 2018. I’ve stayed away from talking about David Cronenberg movies on here because, well, better and smarter people have already done so.

NEW WORLD PICTURES MONTH: Andy Warhol’s Bad (1977)

Directed by Jed Johnson, who also edited Andy Warhol’s Dracula and designed the offices of his magazine Interview, it was written by Pat Hackett and George Abagnalo, and was the last film that […]
