If it's the movie I'm thinking of, yeah, pretty horrible. Though there have been several movies about people being trapped in games and getting into messes. So I could be thinking of a different movie.
I thought this movie was really funny, but then I think Robocop is one of the funniest movies of all time. I thought each scene was a well crafted exercise in absurdity. What was bad about it? I mean, it's no Fight Club but I would put it in the top 10% of movies I have seen.
This movie was completely overshadowed by the release of the first matrix. But existenz is an awesome movie, and I love the art direction and gun designs of this flick. I actually have seen this in theatres. years ago
can't recall a single croenenberg flick that i have liked, it all seems like someone making shitty movies and trying to convince people they are "deep" exiestenz was probably one of the most horrible movies i have ever watched in my life.
