Prompt12

I think the Videodrome is the high technology which affects body in violent ways. The movie Videodrome is filled with violence. This is especially represented by showing death. There are a lot of deaths in the whole movie. Every death is related to the technology; Videodrome. Death is a huge change in the body. This movie shows the death in violent and disgusting ways. Convex programmed Max’s body by using videodrome. He put the tape inside of Max’s body by force. (This is disgusting scene.) Then, Max became assassin of the Videodrome. He killed his partners but fail to kill Bianca. Bianca removed the tape and programmed again to kill people related to videodrome. So Max killed Convex and Herlon. This is the main scene which is described as violent and disgusting death. Their body is changed in horrible and disgusting ways. It is too disgusting that almost everyone wouldn’t enjoy these scenes. According to this point, I think director exposed his intention about the movie. He is looking this movie in negative way. He made viewer to feel themselves about this idea. The argument is that this technology is too much that it can affect the body in negative way. It blows serious attention to viewers about the technology and the body. They would not want this things happens in the real world. Thus, I think this movie uses effective way to support the argument. The argument gets more obviously when showing the violence and negative affect about the body.
