Welcome back to CYBERPUNK CINEMA - the definitive dive into the dark future of science fiction. In this week's episode, I will breakdown the cult classic hallucinatory 1983 cyberpunk film, VIDEODROME (1983)– written and directed by David Cronenberg, and starring James Woods, the master of playing sleazy sketchballs.
The story follows a programmer at a Toronto TV station that specializes in adult entertainment as he searches for producers of a dangerous and bizarre broadcast - VIDEODROME! This film combines Cronenberg’s trademark body-horror with hyperviolent retro cyberpunk vibes that it bleeds off your TV. It's super fucking cool!
Long live the new flesh!
