Did You Know These Classic Films Were All Remakes?

The Fly

You will never watch a more visually upsetting film than The Fly from 1986. This body horror film is scary, but not an original idea. The first iteration of this movie came from director Kurt Neumann in 1958. Both of these were also based on George Langelaan's 1957 short story about a scientist whose teleportation plan goes awry.
