Why This Horror Masterpiece Has 5 Versions and 3 Endings | Videodrome (1983)
David Cronenberg's Videodrome (1983) remains one of the most prophetic and disturbing body horror films ever made. From a script written while the cameras were rolling to an extreme alternate ending cancelled on the day of shooting, the production was as chaotic as the film itself. Join us as we explore the five different cuts — including a lost television broadcast — the influence of Marshall McLuhan, and the incredible practical effects crafted by Rick Baker's 23-year-old team. Long live the new flesh.
