(slight delay typing this up, just found a load of stuff I wrote as net and been down)
This really was one of the most freakiest films I have ever watched in my entire life. But what can we really say when things get a bit too real for us? Alot of technology is coming to be part of our every day life and something that we have all become to depend on. Like in videodrome technology is also what we do for a living and how we make our day to day money. This feel looks at what can happen to people when they tamper directly with technology, the underlying product, it wasnt a good idea to get involoved.
Its kinda like matrix to me. Because just like neo in the matrix both main characters cant really tell the difference between what is reality and what isnt.
I also find that the film protrayed that media can influence peoples violent acts. Somepeople say that video games have even become the source of many teenagers anger and reasoning to the mass suicides. Like when kids in america go in to their schools and have those mass shootings. Then loads of theorists said that they just wanted to act like the "cool" characters in their video games. Weather thats the actual case or not is a totally different matter.
