Struck a nerve

Rating: 9/10 (11 March 2009)

I would easily put this movie on my Top 10 Most Disturbing Movies list ... if only I had one.
The Fly is a movie where is hits every major nerve. And it does so very well, I might add. The movie is not much for action or jump scenes, but who needs those here? The story is about a scientist whose experiment goes wrong and causes him to mutate.
Jeff Goldblum was the perfect choice for Seth Brundle, the eccentric, anti-social scientist. And he pulls off the role better than I could ever have imagined. Geena Davis is also great as Veronica Quaife, the inquisitive reporter who quickly falls for Brundle. Jon Getz is excellent as Stathis Borans, Veronica's boss who has a thing for her.
The music score, lighting, camera-work, and scenery make for a memorable movie.
9/10
