About this movie

In a remake of the 1958 cult classic, a young scientist transforms himself into a fly in an experiment gone horribly wrong. Seth Brundle, a brilliant but eccentric scientist attempts to woo investigative journalist Veronica Quaife by offering her a scoop on his latest research in the field of matter transportation, which against all the expectations of the scientific establishment have proved successful. Up to a point, Brundle thinks he has ironed out the last problem when he successfully transports a living creature, but when he attempts to teleport himself a fly enters one of the transmission booths, and Brundle finds he is a changed man.

Brilliant Science fiction/Horror/Romance. Jeff Goldblum is wonderful as the doomed scientist who matter transports himself unknowingly with a housefly and has his genes mixed with that of the insect. Geena Davis is equally good as his girlfriend who witnesses his gradual transformation into "Brundlefly". Contains infrequent swearing, sexual content and some very gruesome moments (mostly near the end). A powerful and disturbing film that will stay with you long after the end credits roll.
