Myrna (Jennifer Dale) must have had better blind dates. Her table for two is hemmed in by strange shrouds in tall vitrines. And as she makes small talk with her date Karsh (Vincent Cassel), the restaurant's owner, it becomes clear her surroundings are attached – architecturally, financially and intellectually – to a cemetery. And not just any cemetery: its headstones have screens. Because the bodies are swaddled in natty, camera-riddled, internet-enabled shrouds, you can come here to watch your loved ones decompose.

David Cronenberg has directed more than 20 feature films in a wide variety of genres, but he remains best known for provocative '80s sci-fi films like The Fly and Videodrome. Humor writer Tom Gerencer is a lifelong fan of Cronenberg's artistic vision. "He is an absolute genius, and he has merged that with an absolute mastery of craft," Gerencer says in Episode 533 of the Geek's Guide to the Galaxy podcast. "Often you see one or the other. You see someone who's very workmanlike and can produce a good movie, or you see someone who is a genius and is just all over the place, and there are good ones and bad ones. But he is both, and that's rare."
