Antiviral (2012)
A mildly promising debut from Cronenberg's son. It's got an interesting concept which is about a near future when celebrity obsession goes into nut-phase as the clinics sells injections of live viruses harvested from sick celebrities to their obsessed fans. Somewhat a Biological communion but for a price. The actor on the lead (Banshee from X-Men: First Class!) delivered quite a dedicated performance. But sadly, the film suffered for its slow pace & at times it was even bit hard to follow. Moreover, it was kinda Cronenbergian bleak but not as much darker in tone or provides anything sinister in nature that we used get in David Cronenber's all those classic body-horror masterpieces. Still I'll look forward to see any future work from Cronenberg Jr. For at least coming up with an idea like this, I hope he'll able to make better films in coming days.

Spiders (2013)
Cheesy but probably for being a sucker of Giant Spider flicks, I do kinda liked it. Thought it was a pretty decent time waster; at least way more entertaining than those pointless crappy giant shark flicks.
