Programme Information

Sleazy cable guy Max Renn (James Wood) is fascinated with the boundries of human sexuality, looking for more content for his show he stumbles across a "snuff TV" broadcast called Videodrome.

However this isn't the average TV show everyone thinks it is - it is infact an experiment that uses regular TV transmissions to permanently alter the viewer's perceptions by giving them brain damage.

Max finds himself caught in the middle of the forces that created the experiment, and the forces that want to control Videodrome, his body itself turning into the ultimate weapon to fight them leading him to the edge of a very deep, very dark emotional abyss. One that is increasingly dangerous!!
