Crash - 4K restoration

"A surreal meditation on sex, death and the eroticism of destruction, Crash, based on a 1973 novel by British novelist J.G. Ballard, focuses on an underground cult of car-crash fetishists." - San Francisco Chronicle

"Awarded a special jury prize for 'originality, daring and audacity' at the Cannes Film Festival, Crash – adapted from J.G. Ballard’s novel – follows James Ballard (James Spader) and his wife Catherine (Deborah Kara Unger) as they discover an enigmatic subculture of people who fetishize the injuries sustained in car crashes. Holly Hunter, Elias Koteas and Rosanna Arquette co-star as the literal auto eroticists the Ballards encounter on their journey into perversity.

"The re-release is the uncut 100-minute version, freshly restored in 4K by Germany’s Turbine Media Group under the supervision of Cronenberg and director of photography Peter Suschitzky. You’ll be able to admire the Don Valley Parkway in all its utilitarian glory! Much of Crash was shot in Toronto’s east end, and it’ll be interesting to see how different the locations look nearly a quarter-century later." - NOW Magazine
