Videodrome

David Cronenberg

Max Renn, the commissioning editor of the sleazy cable channel Civic TV, is looking for new edgy content. He comes across Videodrome, a pirate broadcast of a hyper-violent program that is not your ordinary television program. Videodrome is a dangerous experiment that uses regular television broadcasts to permanently alter viewers’ perceptions by causing brain damage. The more Max immerses himself in Videodrome, the more he loses himself in a shadowy world of hallucinations, conspiracies, sado-masochistic sex games, and body transformation. The flesh is dead. Long live the new flesh!
