eXistenZ (1999) - Movies Like The Matrix | Filmiway

Game designer Allegra Geller tests her revolutionary organic 'game pods' that players plug directly into their nervous systems through spinal ports. But when corporate assassins attack during the demo, Allegra and a skeptic sales rep flee into the fleshy game world where virtual pods grow from human flesh, mutate according to player emotions, and blur the line between simulation and body horror. Cronenberg's disturbing vision of bio-digital reality questions where flesh ends and code begins in a world where games rewrite biology itself.
