Permeability of the technologized body

by ccManager
Commentary summary:
In an age when bodies are technologized, physical boundaries become fluid

Text Commentary:

The dystopian sci-fi narrative of Repo Men is haunted by echoes of Cronenberg's Videodrome in this climactic scene, which is nearly frustrated by the lack of a conventional computer interface. This futuristic vision of cyborg bodies allows for greater fluidity between the insides and outsides of bodies.
