The Fly (dir. David Cronenberg, USA/Canada, 96 min.)
The Fly (1986) is a science fiction body horror film directed and co-written by David Cronenberg, produced by Brooksfilms, and released by 20th Century Fox. Starring Jeff Goldblum, Geena Davis, and John Getz, it loosely adapts George Langelaan’s 1957 short story and the 1958 film. The plot follows a brilliant but eccentric scientist whose experiment goes disastrously wrong, causing him to transform into a human-fly hybrid. With a score by Howard Shore and groundbreaking makeup effects by Chris Walas and Stephan Dupuis, the film earned critical acclaim after its release. It grossed $60.6 million worldwide and won the Academy Award for Best Makeup. Its chilling tagline, “Be afraid. Be very afraid,” later became a lasting pop culture reference.
Warning: This film contains intense, graphic makeup effects and unsettling body horror that may be disturbing to some viewers.
