"**** (Four Stars) An Instant Classic." – Mike Clark, USA TODAY
"This is arguably David Cronenberg's masterpiece." – Combustible Celluloid
Claire Niveau (Geneviève Bujold) is in love with handsome Beverly. Or does she love Elliot? It's uncertain because brothers Beverly and Elliot Mantle are identical twins sharing the same medical practice, apartment and women – including unsuspecting Claire.
In portrayals that won the New York Film Critics Circle Best Actor Award, Jeremy Irons plays twin gynecologists whose emotional dependency collapses into mind games, madness and murder. David Cronenberg (The Fly) won the Los Angeles Film Critics Awards Best Director honors for melding split-screen techniques, body doubles and Iron's uncanny acting into an eerie, fact-based tale.

“Cronenberg's Dead Ringers is one of my all time favorite films. I preordered it from Scream Factory and received it two weeks earlier than the street day along with a beautiful poster. This is as two disc set, including two different aspect ratios. Each of which are on separate disc ensuring a better image. Speaking of the image, it's beautiful. The reds are stunning. The blacks free of noise. An all around exceptional transfer on both discs. Included is a great insightful commentary by writer William Beard. This was well worth the extra money I paid to get it early. I am so grateful in general to Shout Factory. I'm looking forward to Misery and Hell Night, which both include awesome new artwork. I want those posters!”

“Another fantastic release from Shout/Scream Factory. I love that both aspect ratios were included, the new special features are great, and its great to see some legacy bonus material. I wish the commentary with David Cronenberg were on here as well but I imagine Criterion wanted too much to license it.”

“I thought the transfer looked really good and was glad it got the collector's edition slip covers. One of cronenbergs last horror films and thought it was bizarre and disturbing in parts yet intriguing , as are most of his films. Awesome performance by Jeremy Irons.”
