Film is dotted with video jargon and ideology which proves more fascinating than distancing. And Cronenberg amplifies the freaky situation with a series of stunning visual effects. Full Review

...[Cronenberg] is developing a real genius for this sort of thing....[Woods] gives the performance a sharply authentic edge...

Simultaneously stupefying and boring, Videodrome is too extreme a blunder to survive exposure to a justifiably disillusioned horror-movie public. Full Review

Rating: 3.5/5 -- Here, Cronenberg is a provocateur only to a point - boldly striding past boundaries of comfort but getting the heebie-jeebies upon approaching true profundity. But he wasn't too far from figuring out which incisions could cut the deepest. Full Review

There are distinct signs of strain in the plot convolutions, not least in the spectator's loss of faith over indiscriminate and cheating use of hallucination; what certainly survives is Cronenberg's wholesale disgust with the world in general. Full Review

"Videodrome" is a radical look at the deep-web, YouTube, screen addiction and the increasingly violent state of movies at a time when such subjects weren't up for cultural debate. Full Review

Product Description:

Sleazy cable TV programmer Max Renn (Woods) encounters a strange new program known as "Videodrome". Under its mysterious influence, Max's fantasies seem to come to life as strange things begin to happen and reality is not what it seems. Unmistakable weirdness from cult director Cronenberg.
