Directed by: David Cronenberg
Based on the novel by: William S. Burroughs
Starring: Peter WellerJudy DavisIan HolmRoy ScheiderJulian SandsMonique MercureNicholas CampbellMichael ZelnikerRobert A. SilvermanJoseph ScorsianiPeter BoretskiYuval DanielJohn FriesenSean McCann

115 minutes
(R - strong language, adult themes, adult situations, some violence, bizarre eroticism, drug content)

PLOT:
Not an adaptation of beat writer William S. Burrough's novel but a mix of biography and an interpretation of his drug- induced writing processes combined with elements of his work in this paranoid fantasy about Bill Lee, a writer who accidentally shoots his wife, whose typewriter transforms into a cockroach and who becomes involved in a mysterious plot in North African port called Interzone. Wonderfully bizarre, not unlike Burrough's books.
