Synopsis

In a bid to boost ratings, a programmer for a trashy cable channel broadcasts a hyper-violent torture show called Videodrome. Whilst trying to uncover its origins, he goes on a hallucinatory journey into a shadow world of conspiracy, sadomasochism and bodily transformation.

Our take

David Cronenberg’s intense, quintessential body-horror cult classic: a surreal postmodern vision that grapples with pirate TV, pornography, and mass media to dramatize the contemporary cultural fear of technology & transhumanism. A film at the same time irresistibly fascinating, dark and disturbing.
