Movie Muse: the Fly (1986) Movie Review

In the movie classic “The Fly” audiences are treated to a scientific experiment testing a transporter machine by a lone scientist (played brilliantly by Jeff Goldblum) go terribly wrong.

When a single stray fly goes unnoticed as it becomes trapped in the transporter machine, the DNA of the fly and the scientist are infused together during the transporter human live testing of the machine. At first, no apparent damage to the scientist's body appeared to be a problem, but as more time flies by a noticeable mutation begins to show itself in the scientist's appearance and behavior.

Geena Davis plays the girlfriend and the only bridge to sanely of the scientist who continues to transform from human to fly. She stays by her lover's side throughout the morphing of her genius boyfriend. Even though his transformation begins showing signs of violent behavior and teams of armed security teams have been sent to eliminate the problem before it gets even more dangerous, she sticks by his side.

The movie is a great science fiction testament to how sciences can quickly spinout of control and how humanity can be influenced by the smallest and sometime unknown bugs within the most well thought out scientific experiments.

The movie “The Fly” is worthy of (Renting: Yes - Buying: Yes)

I don't have this movie, oddly enough, as I have many. I have seen it and reccommend it too. For the "campy" value I prefer the original 1956 (or whatever) version.
