Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis star in the 1986 remake of 1950s classic The Fly. Mad scientist Seth Brundle accidentally splices his own DNA with that of a housefly, with grotesque consequences in this David Cronenberg classic. We discuss the body horror, the gross effects (and some gross dialogue) and how it looks through a rainbow lens. Live events are back for 2026.
