I loved this one! But I am also a Debbie Harry fanatic. This and Scanners are my fave by Cronenberg.

Debbie Harry is super-cool in Videodrome, James Woods is great too. It seems weird but they make a great couple in that film.

Cronenberg in general is really brilliant. I liked They Came From Within, Rabid, The Brood, Crash and (one of my favorite movies ever) Existenz.

Anything Cronenberg did around this time period just blows me away. He's definitely a tad bit underrated. He's the Rodney Dangerfield of horror directors.

Scanners is great! The end scene was awesome...

I think all his early horror efforts are great. Dead Ringers is about the time that he lost me though. Just didn't appeal to me.

Personally think that Rabid was his best. It was just so freaky towards the ending won't give anything away but the city scenes in the end were SAVAGE!
