The Fly Uncut

i'm so glad you got to watch the fly.

It's hard to describe the simultaneous feeling of excitement and dread I felt when I saw this was posted

One of the great horror movies. For something so disgusting to have such mainstream success tells you a lot about Cronenberg's skills as a filmmaker. His son Brandon has made a couple of really interesting sci-fi/horror movies too -- interested to see how his career develops. Apparently his next project is a TV adaptation of JG Ballard's book Super Cannes. Which is kinda cool cause his dad adapted Ballard's novel Crash into a pretty contentious movie back in 1996.

Aw man, The Fly! This is my go to movie to put on when I'm sitting down to eat dinner!

Older folks correct me if I’m wrong, but weren’t people taking this as a story about AIDS? I’m trying to remember if AZT was even available when this came out. Anyway, amazing movie. So glad you got to watch this!

Anybody who's ever watched Star Trek and wondered, wait, isn't the "beam me up Scotty" machine killing you and creating a clone on the other side, this is the nightmare you've been waiting for!

James = mind blown. 😄 Um, yeah...This is another remake which is, like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, light years ahead of the original. And, bonus, Jeff Goldblum was in both. ❤️ Seeing it in the theatre was a trip. I was peeking through my fingers, trying not to upchuck my popcorn and Coke, unable to move. And then, surprised at the sadness I felt at the end. 😐 Fun fact: Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis were already a couple when they starred in this. They married a year later. And divorced a couple years after. 💔 Anyway, great movie. Glad you liked it. 🔥

Linda

Correct. Some viewed it as a metaphor for AIDS at the time.

Tetley

Yes I think a lot of film critics took it as an allegory for AIDS, which was causing mass hysteria at the time. But I'm pretty sure Cronenberg denied that was his intention. Possible to shoehorn a lot of meaning into this movie - the gross excesses of the 80s, the decay of love, death and fatalism ...

I still haven't seen "The Fly." It sounded like a rip off of Kafka's "Metamorphosis."

I had to watch this movie for a horror film class and I was just.... so damn confused and bewildered the entire time

Stu

I stopped syncing. Watching you experience this movie is the only way I could go through it again.

Linda

Also, the line, "Be afraid. Be very afraid" Became a popular catch phrase.

Linda

Some tried to hang the AIDS metaphor around the neck of another 80s film: FATAL ATTRACTION The idea being that Alex Forrest was the virus invading the otherwise healthy Gallagher marriage.

Linda

This is only the second time I've seen The Fly. Glad I saw it, but it's one of those that I seriously don't need to see again. 😁

Rare

Can I just mention how much the soundtrack makes this movie?

Tetley

Howard Shore. Genius.
