'Infinity Pool' stars Mia Goth and Alexander Skarsgård on the bonkers X-rated scenes that shocked Sundance

Now his son, Brandon Cronenberg, has gone and shocked the Sundance crowd with his bleak and bloody dark comedy,, which premiered at the festival earlier this week ahead of its Jan. 27 theatrical debut. Set at a high-end resort in an impoverished fictional country, the movie features graphic sex scenes, surreal sci-fi imagery and unnerving acts of violence that left even its stars — Alexander Skarsgård and Mia Goth — shaken, rattled and rolled.

"It was pretty shocking," Goth tells Yahoo Entertainment of her immediate reaction after reading Cronenberg's script. "There are tons of scenes in there where I just thought, 'Oh my goodness! This is pretty out there.' But by the time you get to set, it's more thrilling than anything. There's so much planning that takes place, so when you're actually shooting those scenes it's a lot of fun.

"It kind of shocked me the first time I read it," adds Skarsgård. "It's very rare to read something that is so out there and original. And the journey that my character goes on is just so bananas! It's refreshing to do something that is crazy, out there and wild. Also, Brandon is genuinely the nicest human being on the planet.

that general audiences will see this weekend isn't the same version that left Sundance crowds gasping. The film's distributor, Neon, is releasing an R-rated cut that omits some of the more explicit sequences, that will only be on display in the yet-to-be-released director's cut. Asked whether hardcore horror fans should hold out for the uncut experience, Goth encourages everyone to take the plunge on the R-rated version."The differences between the two [cuts] are very minor," she explains. "Brandon was able to edit it in such a way that regardless of which version you're watching, you're still going to get the full experience out of it.
