No but "Terror Takes Shape" documentary is awesome.
Sure is!
I understand that but to me the acting is mostly awful, characters are unlikable and the villain is pretty surreal.
Also the plot drags like hell with nothing interesting in-between.
The Fly for me as well, it's expertly crafted in every respect. There's a unique blend of overwhelming sense of dread and sorrow that I don't think any film has depicted this effectively. Even the score has me terrified yet sad at the same time.
Not that I would buy any figures based off this movie though.
The McFarlane figure ain't too bad.
But I don't know if I want something that gross displayed on a shelf
The McFarlane figure holds up well, but I'll never buy horror figures even if Hot Toys does The Fly. To each his own but something about having horror figures on the shelf doesn't sit well with me.
Predator is the exception though.
Since it's horror film season, it made me think about my all time favorite horror film. The Fly 1986.
Cronenberg's best film IMO. Goldblum's best perfomance. Best execution of makeup I've ever seen. And my favorite Howard Shore soundtrack. I dearly love Alien and The Thing 1982, but The Fly is more compelling to me which is why I rank it as my #1.
Yet the most disturbing scene was left out.
That film is so disturbing. After watching it, I never saw Jeff Goldblum the same way. I just see a fly...wearing a leather jacket and glasses
I wanted to see the scene where he puked on the homeless lady and ate her face
It was scripted, but nothing further.
I've only seen it in the making of video.
