In Episode #3, the Pavement Pounders, children of the 1980s, switch things up and go for a well-known film that came out during their formative years, 1986’s The Fly, starring Jeff Goldblum.
The 1957 George Langelaan short story of the same name is also considered, as is the very faithful 1958 silver screen adaptation.
Cats are disintegrated! Bacon Man, the invincible and tasty superhero, is born! Animatronic spiders rule the day!
