Society (1989)

Bill Whitney is a popular teenager who suddenly discovers alarming details about his family and the world around him.

'Society' is a cult horror that shocked its audience when released. Its two most important attributes are related to firstly: the metaphor of society and the human nature's tendency to lose one's individuality to their social environment and secondly to the intense use of body horror with the traditional special effects of the time, still impressive in current times. The story has an easy-to-understand plot, but certain elements of the action cause some well deserved eyebrow raising.

Director:  Brian Yuzna     
With: Billy Warlock, Concetta D'Agnese, Ben Slack, Evan Richards

Rating: 7/10
