Movies like Rabid

The Fly is a quintessential body horror film much like Rabid, directed by David Cronenberg, who is known for his visceral and challenging horror films. The story of a scientist transforming into a fly after a botched experiment will captivate audiences who enjoy the blend of horror and science gone awry themes.

A hallucinatory and disturbing vision of technology and body manipulation, Videodrome explores themes of reality versus illusion. Its surreal narrative and special effects make it a compelling watch for those who were intrigued by the biological horrors in Rabid.

In Scanners, Cronenberg delves into the world of individuals with telepathic and telekinetic powers, leading to an underground war. Its iconic head-exploding scene and the theme of biological abnormality will appeal to fans of the grotesque horror present in Rabid.

Re-Animator is a cult classic that combines horror, dark comedy, and science gone wrong. Much like Rabid, the film is based on a medical student who discovers a serum that can reanimate dead tissue, leading to myriad unintended and gruesome consequences.

Another unsettling masterpiece by Cronenberg, Dead Ringers revolves around twin gynecologists whose identity crisis and relationship with a mysterious woman lead to their downfall. Fans of Rabid will appreciate the psychological depth and the unnerving body horror elements.
