The Fly
1986, 1h 36min -
“Be afraid. Be very afraid.” Body-horror master David Cronenberg’s renowned remake of the 1950s science-fiction classic is one of the filmmaker’s most gruesome yet heartbreakingly poignant creations. Jeff Goldblum delivers a career-defining performance as the brilliant but eccentric scientist Seth Brundle who invents a matter transmitter and decides to use himself as a test subject. When a fly accidentally enters the chamber at the time of the experiment, it’s the beginning of a grotesque transformation that will take Brundle beyond the realm of the human.
