Eric England’s ‘Contracted’ Can’t Keep Itself Together
Submitted by BrianTT on November 28, 2013 - 10:51amRating: 2.0/5.0 |
Eric England’s “Contracted” has the potential to turn into a truly disturbing slice of bodily horror a la some of David Cronenberg’s best work. The tale of a lesbian woman who literally starts falling apart after a sexual encounter at a party could have been a commentary on sexuality, a riff on our national obsession with looking perfect, a cautionary tale about drinking, or even just a twisted slice of grotesque horror.
