Abstract
Richard Weaver’s theory of the stereopticon can be described as the creation of false realities through artificially produced spectacles of sights and sounds. David Cronenberg’s early-career Canadian-themed horror films view the stereopticon as completely directing evolutionary human development. Weaver bemoaned the loss of a metaphysically grounded religious world view that could hold back the obscenity of the stereopticon. Alternatively, Cronenberg dissects the obscenity of the stereopticon according to its own form and content.
