Excerpt

When Max Renn goes looking for edgy new shows for his sleazy cable TV station, he stumbles across the pirate broadcast of a hyperviolent torture show called Videodrome. This is one of David Cronenberg’s most provocative works, fusing social commentary with shocking sex and violence.

The greatest horror film with James Woods! This is for the uncut version. Good film anyway. But after a first half, the film gets silly and throws laughable images at the audience, it doesn't recover until the few final frames of the film.
