    Existenz and Avalon(2001), My two favorite millennial badass gamer chick cyberpunk virtualware flicks. Probably watched them each a dozen times back in the day.

    And I don’t even remember Willem Dafoe, looks like I got myself a good excuse to watch them again.

    I mean I only need to watch this one for Willem Dafoe, but, while I’m at it, you know.
