This film I remember scaring the pants off of me as a small child, and I never forgot it. One of Cronenberg's best films, meant to be a metaphor for the aging process, the film is fascinating in that there's no real villain, and no deaths. The horror isn't typical of monster movies, the horror is Geena Davis' character having to watch helplessly as Jeff Goldblum's character descends further into his transformation. Incredible practical effects, this is one of the finest examples of intelligent body-horror.
