Overall it’s a cromulent film, one that I’d rank squarely in the middle tier of his output. Thematically and stylistically this film harkens back to some of his earlier works, what immediately comes to mind are eXistenZ, Videodrome, and Crash. The body horror scenes did have me averting my eyes at some points, though it’s not as gory as you might first suspect. This film also smartly knew just how long it needed to be, didn’t feel like it dragged much at any point.

Colourful, ponderous, dreamlike. Is it too much to ask for the filmmaker to make a film like this for all the national parks? C'mon Parks CanadaMovie comment on Pouvoir intime

Oddly enough this is included as a special feature on the DVD of Hellboy (2004) I have. Not sure what the connection between the two is...Movie comment on Anvil: The Story of Anvil
