The most horrible movie in my life

Rating: 1/10 (30 October 2016)

For some reason obsessive film makers make horrible movies that end up taken as Works of genius by many. This is one case. This movie is disturbing like none I have seen to date. It is not rated on this website but it is obviously R, for nudity, violence and gore. The genre is called biological horror, or body horror, what actually means nothing, so I prefer the first. This kind of movie relies on gruesome fx more than anything else, and the dread of being infected and losing your grip on the the human body, and this movie sets the standard. The acting of Goldblum (Fly) and Davis (girlfriend) are at the level of a low Budget movie, what in a sense this movie is, except it had a big Budget for the first time for a movie of this genre, and that's what makes it exceptional. A lot of care was given into the fx and make up. Cronberg's editing is as bad as your typical 80s movie. And some big mistakes were made in making the final edit, leaving important and relevant scenes out. Special care was given into making the main character likable, although the main actor is anything else but likable. For Croneberg it is a tragic love story. But in my opinion it's hard to tell a love story when you put so much weight on gruesome close ups. The movie makes no effort in hiding the hideousness of the fly character, in fact in puts it right in your face.
