Review of Videodrome (1983) by Pol M — 27 Feb 2011

Meh, I thought it was a little too silly, couldn't take it seriously. There's an annoying strain of naive cynicism running throughout, the kind that always makes me cringe; this idea that pornography is corrupting "us" and that we're headed for a societal collapse as a result.

Artists often use this device to make it look like they're conveying a serious message, and I can never swallow it. Ah well.
