Spider - David Cronenberg (2002)
Perhaps the Cronenberg film that I have enjoyed the least. Like A History of Violence it eschews fantastic elements and drops us into the subjective view of Ralphe Fiennes mentally disturbed protagonist. Felt more like it was going for a Twilight Zone type twist ending rather than delving into the psyche/struggles of the main character. The mumbling and bizarre behavior by Fiennes served to distance me more than drawing me in.
