Being Terrified Is Just The Beginning...


Initially reviled in its native land (some critics took exception to the fact the film was largely funded by the Canadian taxpayer), Shivers is an intensely claustrophobic, subversive masterpiece and an essential entry in the oeuvre of one of the horror genre's most gifted auteurs. Some 40 years after its release, it still retains its power to shock.


Starliner Island is an idyllic community. Cut off from the rest of the world, the luxury apartment block affords its occupants the chance to escape from the hustle and bustle of the big city. But this isolation is to prove fatal when a new breed of parasite - a combination of aphrodisiac and venereal disease which arouses sexual aggression in its hosts - is let loose in the building, resulting in an orgy terror and mayhem.


Known under a host of alternate titles such as The Parasite Murdersand They Came From Within!, Shivers is the startling debut full-length feature from director David Cronenberg which anticipates the body-horror concerns of his later films such as The Fly and Videodrome.

Important Steelbook Note:

Like you, I collect Steelbooks. The pictures included are of the actual Steelbook. Any stock photos shown are of the contents. I take at least six pictures. If you want to see something else, please just ask. Steelbooks are very fragile, and they could have flaws that can only be seen once opened. This is completely out of my control, and when buying this Steelbook, you understand that. The Steelbook will be wrapped correctly and boxed properly. Please examine the photos closely for a detailed condition.
