On this episode of Sound in Space things are getting a little weird as our trio look at the science behind body horror movies and , as you do, in particular - movies where someone gets turned into an animal / insect against their will because…well we’ve already done time travel.
However , is there more science in these schlock horrors than we’re expecting? Emmm..
First up under the microscope is
The Fly - David Cronenberg’s 1986 insect starring horror is genuine classic which saw Jeff Goldblum slowly change from Seth Brundle into BrundleFly after messing around with his new teleportation invention but is it possible to mix human genes with anything else ? If so, why would we do it? And what are the changes of coming up the telepods in the first place
and then
Tusk - Kevin Smith went from comic books and clerks to using his podcast army to create a horror where an annoying podcast host is held against his will and turned into a Walrus but could one really do that? Is this the movie that finally breaks Barry? And if annoying podcasters are targets will the next episode of Sound of Space be completely in Wallrus grunts?
