The Shrouds (2025) - A New David Cronenberg Joint

quote:
“In an eerie, deceptively placid near-future, a techno-entrepreneur named Karsh (Vincent Cassel) has developed a new software that will allow the bereaved to bear witness to the gradual decay of loved ones dead and buried in the earth. While Karsh is still reeling from the loss of his wife (Diane Kruger) from cancer—and falling into a peculiar sexual relationship with his wife’s sister (also Kruger)—a spate of vandalized graves utilizing his “shroud” technology begins to put his enterprise at risk, leading him to uncover a potentially vast conspiracy.”
Janus Films previews, “Written following the death of the director’s wife, the new film from David Cronenberg is a profoundly personal reckoning with grief and a descent into noir-tinged dystopia, set in an ominous world of self-driving cars, data theft, and A.I. personal assistants. Offering Cronenberg’s customary balance of malevolence and wit, The Shrouds is a sly and thought-provoking consideration of the corporeal and the digital, the mortal and the infinite.”
Guy Pearce (The Brutalist) and Sandrine Holt (“Fear the Walking Dead”) also star.
Looks promising and suitably weird.

Guarantee this movie ends with main character buried alive.

Cronenberg is a really strange dude. Wouldn’t shock me if some weird shite came out about him one day

In a world where Michael Bay can't get a greenlight, someone gave David Cronenberg tens of millions to fund yet another body horror shite fest that nobody will see.

I'm betting the budget was fairly small on this one and horror is usually a safe bet, especially for an established name like Cronenberg. Its good to see him getting back to body horror.

Not to mention, it's likely an internationally co-produced film with respected name actors with worldwide appeal.

Have you seen his son’s movies? Possessor and Infinity Pool. Apple doesn’t fall far from tree.
