        Probably the first Synapse release that won't be held up by extensive picture restoration! The price is tempting enough for nostalgia reasons. I would start with good intentions of watching all five but probably wouldn't get past the first ten minutes (unless I was utterly wankered on something with a high alcohol content).

          Part 2 and 3 were originally shot in scope?! How's that possible, I thought they were shot on video?

          BTW, Part 4 is a horrible, horrible film. Not even worth watching once.
          Why would anybody watch a scum show like Videodrome? Why did you watch it, Max?
