Watch Shivers For Free

Very best movie i ever watch

Simply Perfect

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Clever, believable, and super fun to watch. It totally has replay value.

Shivers is a bad film, lacking in the basic areas required to be of any quality. So Cronenberg went on to do "The Fly," which is brilliant and this is like his first low budget film, but that doesn't affect my opinion. It has a weak story or lack of story, poor characters and is completely devoid of any feeling. The nurse was only thing this flick had going for it, but it really didn't capitalize on that either. The doctor who was aware of the signs, couldn't even tell when his girlfriend was infected right in front of him and yet still had time to avoid it when others didn't, grrr.

David Cronenberg's 1975 sci-fi/horror film stars Paul Hampton, Joe Silver and Lynn Lowry. This begins in an apartment building where a scientist kills a young woman and then himself. Hampton plays doctor, Roger St. Luc who discovers that he was working on an experiment with parasites and the girl was infected. The parasites turn their hosts into mindless, sex fiends and soon, they spread in the apartment building, infecting the residents. The late, Silver (Rabid) plays Roger's friend, Rollo Linsky who is a scientist and Lowry plays nurse, Forsythe. This is pretty good, the cast is decent and there's great make-up effects. If you're into body horror flicks, give this a view.

It could be a milestone through David's movies! I rented this DVD and got back to my apartment, turning the lights off.For some time, I fell asleep and lost my sensibility. As I woke up sweating, I caught the glimpse of an unknown liquid coming out of the toilet, it made my heart up and down for a while, then I watched the rest of movie on my own over and over again. Overall,the aspects were fine, the plots were good, the actors were not so bad, but the music and background were a little bit scary and thrilling. The Fly was his second must-see film. It tells of the tragedies of science. The ending was thought-provoking, you know, it reminded me of something bad, maybe i would add more comments about it.

"Starliner Tower" is a high-rise apartment complex which is situated on an island off the coast of Canada and has been marketed like a cruise ship. It has just about everything—swimming pools, tennis courts, a medical clinic, a dentist office, and a grocery store—along with a beautiful view of the ocean all around. And people come here to live and get away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. At least that is their intention. What they don't know is that one of the residents by the name of "Dr. Emil Hobbs" (Fred Doederlein) has been experimenting with a parasite that can replace a dying organ in the body. It feeds off of the host but contributes the benefit of a healthy organ. Unfortunately, things don't turn out as planned because the organism develops something much like a venereal disease and an aphrodisiac combined. But with deadly consequences for those who come into contact with an infected person. In essence, the parasite turns its host into sex-starved zombies! Well, maybe not "zombies" in the purist sense of the word but whatever the name they're certainly sex-starved. At any rate, rather than reveal any further details and possibly spoil the movie for those who haven't seen it let me just say that this was an interesting movie with a bit of lewdness thrown in for good measure. As far as the acting was concerned, I especially liked the chemistry portrayed between "Dr. Roger St. Luc" (Paul Hampton) and "Nurse Forsythe" (Lynn Lowry). Also worth mentioning is the presence of Barbara Steele (as "Betts") who was an established actress in horror films a decade earlier. Be that as it may, viewers of films similar in concept to the zombie genre might find something of interest here to enjoy. I rate it as average.
