Viggo Mortensen stars as an artist who grows mysterious new organs and removes them in his shows. Over the course of the film, he runs into obsessive groupies, uncomfortably supportive government agencies and a vast conspiracy about mutants who eat plastic. \u201cCrimes of the Future\u201d is not a remake of Cronenberg\u2019s second film, although the organ-harvesting plot harkens back to it. Instead seems to be a weird satire of Cronenberg\u2019s own, unusual place in the art community, funnier than most of his works and bitingly self-aware. Eventually, however, the plot takes hold, the commentary falls off and \u201cCrimes of the Future\u201d abandons almost all its threads for an unsatisfactory conclusion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>18. &#8220;Crimes of the Future&#8221; (2022) \u00a0 \u00a0 In the near future, humanity has lost its capacity to feel pain, and live surgical shows have become the arthouse blockbuster entertainments of the era.
