Max Headroom Cast

The Zik-Zak corporation launches its latest marketing gimmick: the Neurostim bracelet. The device comes free with every Zik-Zak product, and supposedly makes all your dreams come true. Ever suspicious, Carter learns that Neurostim stimulates the brain with subliminal advertising, completely bypassing the need for television commercials. However, Carter’s investigation is soon hampered by by the argumentative Max headroom, who insists that he is the one who really pulls in the ratings...
