Gemini Man was cancelled after just one season, with its final episode airing in 1977. The show had its strengths, with solid performances by its cast and a unique and intriguing premise. However, it was up against the iconic Charlie’s Angels, the 6 Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman, and it cost more to produce as the special effects of invisibility were more demanding than the slow-motion and sound effects of bionics. Nevertheless, Gemini Man left a lasting impression on fans of science fiction and espionage, with its concept of invisibility continuing to influence popular culture in subsequent years.

The non-linear storytelling, gives the viewer the same disjointed confusion that one would expect it’s hero to be experiencing as he leaps about in time. The film’s unconventional narrative structure, creates a unique and immersive viewing experience, as the audience goes through the same events from multiple perspectives. Michael Sacks in his portrayal of Billy Pilgrim, is another standout aspect of Slaughterhouse Five. Sacks perfectly captures the vulnerability and intensity of the role, making his character very relatable.

Despite its many strengths, Slaughterhouse Five is not without its flaws. The easily offended might find it’s depiction of violence and bleak world view disturbing, but for those who have been through tough times, this can be understood as how life is for some. Others lacking focus, may find it’s slow pace and confusing narrative structure, challenging to follow. But if you can handle war movies or like time travel films, it is not one to miss.

Shivers is a prime example of what became Cronenberg’s signature style…body horror, where physical changes gross out or titillate the viewer while manifesting into a psychological thriller. The film featuring Paul Hampton, Lynn Lowry and Barbara Steele was alternatively titled as The Parasite Murders and They Came From Within. If you watch carefully, you may be able to spot a young Cronenberg as a background extra.

The movie was shot on location in a high rise apt complex called Starliner Towers for the film. Things start of with a murder mystery when Dr. Hobbs kills a petite young woman. He posthumously cuts open her abdomen and dowses the cavity in acid then slits his own throat. An adulterous neighbor enters the apt shortly thereafter and sneaks away again without reporting the crime. The Starliner Towers has a medical facility on property, and the resident Doctor, Roger St. Luc has a lunch appointment to meet Dr. Hobbs upstairs at the location of the murder, so he discovers the horrid scene and calls the police.

Dr. St. Luc contacts Hobbes’ research partner, Rollo Linsky to discuss his obviously premeditated murder-suicide. Dr. Linsky tells him that the pair had been working on creating a parasite that could replace an organ and symbiotically function in the organ’s place. ​As Dr St. Luc continues with his day, we are introduced to a range of Starliner residents. Linksky, who has gone to clear out his partner’s office, phones Dr. St. Luc to tell him that Hobbes’ research notes revealed that he had used the murder victim as a guinea pig for a parasite that both replaces organs but also makes people mindlessly sex crazed. He warns him to not approach anyone acting strangely.

Perhaps the most amazing part of this story is that there now exists numerous groups of women that strive to be just like the Stepford wives.
