I love the practical FX, I still don't know how David Cronenberg made it but I have to say, good acting, best animation sequences…

A classic that was decades ahead of its time…

What the hell is this crap…

This is a transitional film for Cronenberg…

Call me weird, but I don't see why people rave about this movie. I did not like it. Very boring IMO. I give the movie this, SFX was great…

Still stunningly relevant, a quality horror with great performances. Silly to think it's 34 years old…

Videodrome doesn't have the same well-written characters that The Fly (1986) did but it still has the power to draw us in due to its disturbing…

Not as good as scanners or the fly. Weird lofi kind of film…

Touching on ideas that director David Cronenberg would later bring back again in a different way in eXistenZ such as alternate realities, flesh…

David Cronenberg's Videodrome is great…
