Ep. 62 - THE FLY (1986)
Manage episode 210572041 series 2362287
Last week on the show, we visited the 1958 Vincent Price classic THE FLY. This week, we're discussing it's (possibly better-known) remake, directed by David Cronenberg and starring Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis.
SYNOPSIS: When Seth Brundle makes a huge scientific and technological breakthrough in teleportation, he decides to test it on himself. Unbeknownst to him, a common housefly manages to get inside the device and the two become one.
You guys spoke and let us know if the 1958 version of THE FLY belonged in the Psychotronic Hall of Fame (you'll find the results in this episode), so now we're asking you the same for the 1986 remake. Is THE FLY (86) one of the greatest genre films of all time? Does it deserve to go into the annals of history?
Theme song: “Foreign Body” by the Slasher Film Festival Strategy from their album PSYCHIC SHIELD. More info: slasherfilmfestivalstrategy.bandcamp.com
