I know I’d seen this sometime in the past, but, on watching, found I remembered nothing about it aside from the similarities borrowed for the Cronenberg remake. I loved the way it begins – at the end of the story, which then gets told as a confession, but the flashback doesn’t start until at least twenty minutes into the film. A couple pretty gruesome scenes with no gore: the best kind.
