Finally: an episode dedicated to gratuitous torture and punishment. Better Than Speed investigates the truth behind Cronenberg's Videodrome, and discovers the graphic violence depicted may not be as fake as they thought. Plus, special guest Dawn Garcia professes her undying love for Keanu Reeve's Speed. Head's up: Videodrome is one of the more intense film selections we've featured so far, so we briefly talk about sexual violence and self-harm in relation to the film's plot in this episode. If you need any resources in dealing with these subjects, please reach out to the friendly folks at crisistextline.org or The National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-8255.
