from Vintage Cinema Rewind · host vintagecinemarewind
Blake and Michael are back from their five-part, one-hundred-movie-long extravaganza and only slightly worse for wear. And now, they’re celebrating the spookiest time of year with perhaps the weirdest movie of the eighties: David Cronenberg’s Videodrome. Blake is a charismatic television executive with his eyes on the stars. But when Michael unscrambles a disturbing new broadcast, Blake thinks he’s discovered the latest trend in sleaze. What follows is a mind-melting, bioelectrical trip into the human soul. Will they ring in the new flesh? Or will their plug finally be pulled?
