The Fly

For today's horror film I watched David Cronberg's "The Fly." A really good creature, sci-fi horror film, the movie follows the story of a scientist who invents a teleportation machine and upon trying it upon himself becomes genetically spliced with a fly that accidentally flew into the machine with him. He slowly begins turning into a fly-human hybrid and losing his touch with reality. This film is typical Cronenberg, in the best way possible; lots of over the top, gory, and immensely disturbing special effects and a very warped view on reality.  Jeff Goldbloom is great as well, and the twist about three quarters of the way through the film isn't only genius and disturbing all on it's own but results in an incredibly creepy sequence, honestly one of the creepiest horror sequences I can think of. Very well done sci-fi horror given the great Cronenberg treatment.

8.5/10
