Welcome to filmmaker Shinya Tsukamoto’s unhinged hot take on humankind’s ongoing battle with technology – literally, as a man mutates into a walking man-machine that terrorizes himself and everyone around him. Warping elements of early Cronenberg, Lynch, and Raimi into a cyberpunk cocktail, TETSUO is a body horror manifesto that’s fueled by techno-erotic adrenaline and wrought iron perversion.
