Tighten your nerves, for I am here to announce this month's film in our ongoing Late Night series! We are very excited to be bringing you a special screening of David Cronenberg's remarkable 1986 science-fiction body horror masterpiece, THE FLY, Saturday, November 23rd at the historic Babcock Theatre! Arguably the true master of mind-melting, reality-questioning body horror nightmare films, David Cronenberg's remake of the 1958 horror classic of the same name is a heavy step up from it's tame source material. With a much more modernized look, that trademark Cronenberg sexual aspect, and some of the most terrifying and grotesque practical gore and creature effects to ever grace the screen, THE FLY is an unforgettable achievement in both the sci-fi and horror genres, and it is an absolute must-see for any fan of the genres!

Jeff Goldblum stars as scientist Seth Brundle, a genius who is about to make a massive technological breakthrough in teleportation as he begins to use himself as a test subject. Unbeknownst to him, an ordinary housefly slipped inside of the chamber during the test, resulting in a merging of their DNA. Undergoing a horrifying physical and mental metamorphosis, Seth struggles to find a way to counteract the event as his body begins to reassemble itself into something half man and half insect!

Cost: $9
