Review of Videodrome (1983) by Tatsuhito K — 22 Nov 2016

This is a really fun, often icky body horror film with some really interesting ideas and great practical effects. I liked how Cronenberg went from a structurally conventional sci-fi horror film (Scanners) to an unconventional, provocative, and totally original body horror movie.

I liked the ideas discussed in the film, I liked how unique and different it was from any horror film I've ever seen, and even when the violence got splattery, it didn't take me out of the film.

It's not for everybody, but the fans of Cronenberg would cherish this audacious piece of work. I liked it a lot!
