**Screenwriter**: David Cronenberg **Producer**: Claude Héroux We’re celebrating **Video Store Day** with horror maestro David Cronenberg’s VCR-centric classic ***Videodrome***! *Long Live the New Flesh! * The master of body horror, David Cronenberg brings us one of his most viscerally disturbing treatises on voyeurism, sleaze, and the pursuit of the deepest of underground entertainment. As the president of a trashy TV channel, Max Renn (James Woods) is desperate for new programming to attract viewers. When he happens upon *Videodrome*, a TV show dedicated to gratuitous torture and punishment, Max sees a potential hit and broadcasts the show on his channel. After his girlfriend (Blondie’s Debbie Harry) auditions for the show and never returns, Max investigates the truth behind *Videodrome* and discovers that the graphic violence may not be as fake as he thought. So pop a tape in your abdomen and get ready for Video Store Day at Vidiots!
