body horror

🥧 It's International Pie Day!!! So we figured we would celebrate by covering something very niche. Join us as we dig into the feast that is Stephen King's Thinner, adapted into this very strange 1996 film. Lots of very unlikeable characters in this one too, so make sure to stick around til the end, as we'll choose which character we think was most deserving to die.

Be afraid, be very afraid because this week we are talking about the body horror cult classic Cronenberg film, The Fly.

Seth Brundle a brilliant scientist has made one of the greatest discoveries in human history, the ability to teleport objects from one place to another. There's only one little problem though, it can only teleport inanimate objects and nothing living. At least not yet. While testing the machine on himself, a housefly slips into the teleporting chamber causing the two to fuse into one. Now, Seth slowly begins to change into a part human/part fly creature while his partner Veronica can only standby and watch as he transforms into something else entirely. 

EDITORS NOTE: This episode was supposed to be released on Feb 6th. but due to technical issues had be pushed back.

Join the boys as they follow Bobby on the worst day you could imagine befalling an 8 year old boy, starting at an innocent-looking amusement park before veering into naked, squishy body horror. What at first seems like a playful new approach to animation quickly devolves into one of the grossest, strangest movies ever covered on the podcast. Also, the boys discuss edible alien cotton candy butts and a bizarre animal adoption center concept.

Körperliche Deformationen, Mutationen und Verletzungen: Body-Horror ist nichts für schwache Mägen. In dieser Folge erforschen Kim und Denise, was das Genre so faszinierend macht. Denise bespricht den Manga “Tomie” (1987) von Junji-Ito. Darin geht es um die schöne Tomie Kawakami, die durch Liebhaber immer wieder umgebracht wird, aber trotzdem immer wieder neu aus sich heraus wächst – buchstäblich. Sie überlegt, wie Tomie Schönheit mit Ekel zusammenbringt, und was wir von dem Manga über Macht, Ästhetik, und körperliche Autonomie lernen können. Kim hat den Film-Klassiker “The Fly” (1986) von Body-Horror-Koryphäe David Cronenberg dabei. In dieser Geschichte gelingt Wissenschaftler Seth nach der zweiten Pavian-Teleportation der Durchbruch - er teleportiert sich selbst, kriegt aber nicht mit, dass er nicht alleine im Telepod ist... Kim erzählt euch, was Seths körperliche und psychische Veränderungen mit unseren eigenen Körpern zu tun haben, und warum "The Fly" eigentlich eine Liebesgeschichte ist. Summ summ!

Achtung!
- In dieser Folge reden wir explizit über gewaltsame körperliche Veränderungen und Verletzungen, Deformationen, und tierische Metamorphosen inklusive diversen Körperflüssigkeiten.
- Diese Folge enthält wesentliche Spoiler zum Film “The Fly” (1986).
- Triggerwarnung: Zwischen 32:28 und 38:45 beschreibt Denise explizite Szenen des Body-Horrors und körperlicher Gewalt in “Tomie”. Darin geht es u.a. auch um Trypophobie und Arachnophobie.

Wouldn't it have been fun to review THE FLY (1986) and also the 1958 original version? I guess we'll never know, having only found time to cast our critical eye at the DAVID CRONENBERG remake. 

There's no messing about as the movie immediately throws the two main characters together at some kind of nerd convention. I'm a fan immediately getting on with the story and not wasting precious time with wearisome world building. We've got a podcast to make and efficient story telling such as this is a boon to people like us!

I suppose the real test of a famous body horror movie from the 1980's is whether the visuals still hold up. Reegs and Sidey certainly think so. Let us know what you think of THE FLY on any of our social channels.  

We love to hear from our listeners! By which I mean we tolerate it. If it hasn't been completely destroyed yet you can usually find us on twitter @dads_film, on Facebook Bad Dads Film Review, on email at baddadsjsy@gmail.com or on our website baddadsfilm.com.

Until next time, we remain...

***SPOILER WARNING! AS WITH ALL SPECIAL EDITIONS, WE WILL DISCUSS EVERY DISGUTING DETAIL OF THE MOVIE***

The announcement that David Cronenberg was returning to science-fiction body horror was met with a mix of excitement and trepidation. There is no doubting that he is one of the most influential directors of all time. His influence can be found in a number of movies. Still, it has been a while since he has made one of these types of movies. Is Crimes of the Future his triumphant return or a relic of the past?

The movie is about a performance artist named Saul Tenser (Viggo Mortensen) and her partner Caprice (Lea Seydoux). The pair use their performances to showcase changes in the human body. They soon get caught up in a mystery that includes government conspiracies and murder.

Cronenberg films have always contained a heavy dose of sexuality and Crimes of the Future is no different. In this case, surgery and sex are a running theme. "Surgery is the new sex" is a great nu-metal lyric, but how well did it work in this movie? Do things go too far?

The other big selling point for the film was the return to body horror. Based on still shots and trailers, there was a lot of freaky stuff going on. Earman alone is enough body horror for some. Does Crimes of the Future live up to fan expectations? And what will people who have heard of Cronenberg's work think?

Crimes of the Future is about more than sex, surgery, and grossing audiences out. There is a surprisingly grounded story here. The question becomes, is it too down to earth? Should the plot have taken a more fantastic slant? We also discuss how well the mystery worked and the if the futuristic setting seemed dated.
