it's a little silly, but i still really love it.

ditto, but Videodrome is still my favorite film of his (with The Brood a close second)

I think The Brood is Cronenberg's masterpiece, and highly recommend it.

I'm renting Blood for Dracula and Flesh for Frankenstein... anyone see these? They look incredibly campy and fun. And criterion, too.

you pretty much said it: campy and fun.

It's a shame not to see Flesh for Frankenstein in 3-D though.
