Day 22: The Fly (1986)

Welcome back for Day 22 of our 31 Days of Horror series! Today, we’re closing out the 1980s with David Cronenberg’s 1986 remake of The Fly. Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis star in this one, and I’ll go ahead and preface my review by saying that I have not seen the original version from the ’50s. Therefore, this won’t be a comparison between the two, and any thoughts regarding the 1986 version won’t reflect positive or negative changes from the other. With that said, I enjoyed this movie. Jeff Goldblum was a great choice to play Seth Brundle, as he fits the nerdy-but-lovable scientist mold quite well. I guess I’d never seen him …
