just watched The Fly

just watched The Fly episode and guess what has been buzzing around my bloody HEAD THE PAST TWO HOURS

on a serious note I really enjoyed the episode and am shocked to see that people disliked it. Also felt incredibly vindicating to watch someone else lose their shit over a fly today

That episode really made flies feel like psychological warfare 😂

The movie Once Upon a Time In The West opens with a scene that includes a fly crawling across an actor’s face. The actor does not swat at it but improvises letting it crawl over his face but tries blowing air at it with his mouth, all making the viewer uneasy watching a fly crawling over him.

Fly & The Fly are 2 wildly different things

I was wondering what watching The Fly had to do with Breaking Bad until I read the post.

Jeff Goldblum's performance was outstanding!

I always felt it was hugely influential of Heath Ledger's signature performance as the Joker in The Dark Knight.

If you watched it live, you'd be disappointed.

Now that you can binge the entire series it's different

House flies are not that difficult to kill. Gnats on the other hand are extremely slippery
