One of the better, more restrained entries of the 'shock' school.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
The Fly is a study in how the boldness of new discoveries is compromised by science's need for precision, but it's also a nightmarish tale of a comfortable little family, and a nagging little buzz.

The script works hard to ensure that the premise delivers without succumbing to its surface absurdity.

Contemporary horror fans will be struck by how much more dramatic than horrific 'The Fly' is.

Rating: 3/4 --
The climax ("Help me!") has given many viewers chills while providing others with chuckles -- I'm in the former camp; the primal terror of that situation never fails to move me -- and the rest is efficient in its solemnity.

Product Description:
A classic science-fiction/horror film about a scientist's "teleport" machines, which dissolve atoms in one place to recreate them in another. When the scientist unwittingly shares the machine with a common housefly, he turns into a hideous hybrid of man and insect--and begins to literally bug out. The scientist wants to reverse the process, but first he must catch that fly. Hilarious as well as horrific, this spawned two sequels in the '50s (RETURN OF THE FLY and CURSE OF THE FLY) before starting another cycle in the '80s, beginning with David Cronenberg's remake.
