The original film followed a cable TV programmer (James Woods) who tried to make his station relevant by programming 'Videodrome', a reality TV series that depicts torture and murder that transfixes viewers. He soon uncovers a political conspiracy tied to a malicious broadcast signal within the show that causes disturbing hallucinations and brain tumours in an effort to ideologically "purge" North America.
The original version is famous for its catchphrase "Long Live the New Flesh".
Ehren Kruger is writing the remake script and will produce with Daniel Bobker.
