February 4th, 1983. The bizarre masterwork of Canada's own David Cronenberg, Videodrome, released to mass confusion and strong competition. With an odd advertising campaign, weird trailer releases and lack of direction in marketing, Videodrome stumbled in the box office even with rave reviews behind it. Years without video release, Videodrome garnered a strong cult following that has giving Videodrome the well deserved hype and praise it truly deserved.
This week, the gang closes out the Halloween season with Liam's choice and an all time banger at that one. Discussion includes Cronenberg's origins, James Wood's Twitter antics, failed sheep gut launching, MK-Ultra analogies, Debbie Harry surviving Ted Bundy, Matty Larue's gullibility towards actor's ages and so much more.
