Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Brilliant molecular physicist Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum) has unlocked the secret of teleportation, using Telepods to break his body down at a molecular level, then rebuilding it in a sister Telepod located metres away. But what happens if Seth isn’t the only living thing in the Telepod?

Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis, both rocking phenomenal ‘80s perms, star with a stirring and intense chemistry, emboldened by cutting edge makeup and visual effects that earned the film a 1986 Oscar.

David Cronenberg’s Shivers may have been the genesis of the body horror subgenre, but The Fly, undoubtedly swats the competition as the genre’s opus dei, asking the question – when do we stop being human?

"What makes The Fly such a stunning piece of obsessive film making is the way Cronenberg deftly allows us to identify with his monstrous creation." - LA Times
