Entertainment Reviews:
Revolting, yes, but still, an intelligent predecessor to some more moronic efforts in the same genre.

Rating: 3/4 --
Remains effectively squirmy, gruesome, and even prescient nearly forty years after its release.

Ultimately Rabid boils down to zombified sluts and shock moments but it's an irresistible combination that Cronenberg handles well.

Cinema as a sustained bout of fever, a melancholy defense of Pandora

After the shock tactics of Shivers, Cronenberg's next venture into body horror is more subdued, but holds up surprisingly well.

The Skinny
Cronenberg's cult classic...
Entertainment Weekly
[T]he Cronenberg 'body horror' flick in which the B touches almost subsume the intellectual content.
Premiere
Product Description:
After undergoing radical surgery for injuries from a motorcycle accident, a young woman (former adult film star Marilyn Chambers) develops a strange phallic growth on her body and a thirst for human blood -- the only nourishment that will now sustain her. Vampire-like, she prowls the city of Montreal, using her sexual powers to attract victims, who she then infects with a particularly virulent strain of rabies. In no time at all, the city is reduced to a raging mass of rabid, salivating monsters and only an army of machine-gun-wielding soldiers can subdue them. David Cronenberg's horror film explores the relationships between sex and violence, between bodily disintegration and the disintegration of society.
