Celebrating the 40th anniversary of Videodrome - long live the new flesh!
Max Renn (James Woods), a programmer for an underground cable network, discovers Videodrome, a mysterious channel that’s to be dedicated to depravity of all persuasions. He enlists the help of his lover Nicki (a campy & kinky Debbie Harry), in searching for the source of the signal, and together they uncover a dark and bizarre network that threatens the fabric of reality.
Pioneering beautifully grotesque sequences of biomechanical metamorphosis combining man with machine, a concept that had never seen the light of cinema, through Videodrome, Cronenberg’s brand of filmmaking became an adjective, with ultra-violent, psychosexual satire that sets sensationalist media in its sights, and birthing an entirely new horror subgenre.
