Shivers, Cronenberg's very unpleasant early film, aka The parasite murders, even its title shivers can be taken in many ways, "iv'e got the shivers" or "i just felt a shiver down my spine" or "i'm shivering" , every time i hear someone say these things i think of that film.
This is appropriate for the Yuletide season.
