Arthro-Pod EP 146: Arthro-Pod Dissects "The Fly"
Welcome to spooky season bug lovers! To celebrate, the Arthro-Pod crew sat down and watched the 1986 film, "The Fly" starring Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis and directed by the master of body horror, David Cronenberg. A word of warning, this one might not be suitable for all ages as we do talk about some graphic horror movie tropes and other sensitive topics.
Tune in though if you would like to hear a discussion on the entomological aspects of "The Fly" and why the idea of becoming an insect terrifies us so much. We also touch on scientific ethics and other themes incubating within the Brundlefly.
Look at those aristate antennae!Show Notes
