Interzone is a place between two worlds; it's the bridge connecting the everyday mundane where novels as American as football sell like hotcakes, to the place that breathes life into the discordant style of a man who puts on an unfortunate "William Tell" act with his wife. It's a place that filmmakers like David Cronenberg sometimes take their audience to tell a sordid, frequently repulsive tale that takes as much guts to recount as it does talent. In the case of 'Naked Lunch,' Cronenberg had plenty of both on display. the following information on the restoration: Naked Lunch has been exclusively restored by Turbine in partnership with Arrow Films and is presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.85:1

Naked Lunch 4K Audio

In a career dedicated to seeing the unseeable and filming the unfilmable, perhaps only David Cronenberg could really do justice to William S. Burroughs’ controversial novel, Naked Lunch. Weaving together elements of Burroughs’ own remarkable biography with the content of the book, Cronenberg’s film steps inside the body and mind of an author to depict the dangerous act of imagination itself from the inside out. Former junkie William Lee (Peter Weller, Robocop) makes ends meet as an exterminator. But when he and his wife Joan (Judy Davis, Barton Fink) discover the hallucinatory properties of the powder he uses to kill bugs, they become hooked, and their world is changed forever. Insects speak, typewriters mutate and talk, interdimensional beings reveal themselves, identities fracture and blur; nothing and no one is quite what it seems. When Bill, under the influence of drugs, or the bugs that have begun talking to him, shoots his wife, he flees to Interzone, at once a place and a state of mind, where things only get stranger. But even though Burroughs does a sort of inadvertent double-duty here (that is: he's the subject and the originator of this work), it would be a mistake not to see 'Naked Lunch' as a kind of stunning creative success for Cronenberg. Why else would we still be discussing the film more than two decades since it first perplexed audiences by putting Peter Weller behind a pair of glasses and a typewriter so soon after they'd come to appreciate him as the man behind the metallic visor and the stiff movements more commonly associated with Disneyland animatronics, in ' 'Robocop'?
