We here at Auteur Theory hope you're having a wonderful week and in great spirits. But if you'd like to change that, how about a trip to the grayest of England's gray, crumbling streets with a mumbling, mentally-broken Ralph Fiennes as your guide? It's David Cronenberg's 2002 downer psycho-drama Spider.

Nick ad Chris are joined by Cecil Laird of The Horror Show to take a look at one of Cronenberg's most acclaimed, but seldom-viewed efforts. Is it an overlooked diamond-in-the-rough, or just rough to watch? Join us to find out.
