Journalist Eddie Brock is trying to take down Carlton Drake, the notorious and brilliant founder of the Life Foundation. While investigating one of Drake's experiments, Eddie's body merges with the alien Venom -- leaving him with superhuman strength and power. Twisted, dark and fueled by rage, Venom tries to control the new and dangerous abilities that Eddie finds so intoxicating.
When Eddie Brock acquires the powers of a symbiote, he will have to release his alter-ego “Venom” to save his life.
“When he hit rock bottom, where did all that confidence go? Where did all that personality go? He became some next person. Then when he merged with Venom…hmm I don’t know. It was all over the gaff! Just him and Venom, that was the most enjoyable part.”
