Now a controversial film directed by David Cronenberg and starring James Spader, this underground classic explores violence and eroticism in the automotive age. The new-style TV scientist Dr. Robert Vaughan has a fetish for car wrecks -- the ghastly union of steel, glass, and flesh. His fantasies of mayhem on the freeways culminate in a monstrous obsession: to orchestrate a head-on collision between his own car and Elizabeth Taylor's limousine.
