Nowadays, the name Denis Villeneuve conjures up hopeful images of a Dune adaptation with a comprehensible plot (sorry, David Lynch, but clarity was never your strong suit).

But before viewers get their hopes to high, they should know that this remake's helmer has a history of getting weird with sci ti cinema too.

Before the big budget likes of Blade Runner 2049 and Arrival, Villeneuve was doing a strange sort-of adaptation of Dostoevsky’s The Double with inexplicable added spider-women in the form of Enemy.

Following an unfaithful Jake Gyllenhaal as he becomes obsessed with tracking down his exact double, this strange sci-fi drama is filled with odd unexplained images of spiders throughout the hero's life, eventually culminating in an unforgettable headf*** of an ending.
