It seems hollywood and it's subsidiaries have managed to recreate a general theme in as many attempts possible until something strikes a chord. This is film is obscure and not many people know of it, but it's on youtube if you want to give it a shot. Futuristic dystopia ran by an elite group who use prostitution, murder and brainwashing as an occupation. The movie isn't action packed but you should watch it all the way through because it does come to a climax towards the end, which is a MUST see. Someone here mentioned a similarity to Videodrome, I would agree, this film being the aforementioned film lesser known, seedy cousin.

The protagonist tracks down her sister (not brother, as in a comment elsewhere) and finds only a corpse. Following in her footsteps to find out what happened to her, the protagonist is plunged into a confusing world where she seems to be the only one who isn't sure what's what.Actually, she's not alone. We as the audience are just as muddled, and while we can pick up a clue or two having read the short description on the jacket of the videotape, we wonder whether we would really understand if no one had given a short summary beforehand.We shouldn't really be disappointed, as this cheap B-movie doesn't promise much and delivers just as little. There are no sex scenes to speak of, and the "mind control" is just headphones and strobe lights. If you don't like the first 15 minutes, stop. There's nothing new in the rest of the movie.

I was pleasantly surprised by this little ultra low budget sci-fi thriller, the 7ft. tall model of the NeuroVid Complex used in the film was actually a miniature used in "Dick Tracy" that art director Pam Moffat managed to borrow! It's much in the same vein as Videodrome. A young woman is drawn into a seedy underworld in the Neurovid center in the near future as she investigate the death of her sister.NeuroVid produces erotically titillating videos for special purposes. She is dragged still deeper into this strange world to learn the ultimate secret of NeuroVid. In the NeuroVid world you literary move upwards on the floors when you as entertainer are promoted in the system and higher up the surprises are waiting. The acting is the weak spot of this chiller but Candice Daly is very sexy, great atmosphere and visuals. 7/10
