Be afraid. Be very afraid...
The Fly (1958) A brilliant scientist becomes obsessed with perfecting a device that can transmit matter from one location to another. Successful in his initial tests, he experiments with a human guinea pig - himself. But an ordinary housefly makes the journey with him, and when they emerge, both creatures have been extraordinarily changed. This is the chilling story of a man fighting to retain his humanity, and a desperate woman's attempt to save the man she loves.
(Dir. Kurt Neumann, Cert. 12)
Return Of The Fly (1959) The boundaries of science are pushed to their every limits in this sequel to the classic, ever-popular The Fly.

Taking spectacular revenge on his betrayers, Philippe must also race against time and find a way to reverse the horrifying mutation.

7 Discs including the original Vincent Price version and it's two sequels. The Curse of the Fly is rarely seen anywhere, mostly because it's actually quite poor. And then you have the superb Cronenberg version along with it's terrible sequel. Watch the good ones sober and watch the rest with beer and pizza!
A great looking boxset with all of the movies from past to present. Jeff Goldblums movie was the first I had watched and it was unforgettable.
The Fly's saga: great the first movie, less the second, more less the third, great the 1986 remake, trashy its sequel; a collection of maximum value.
Got this for £9.99 in the sale,but at £14.99 it's well worth it.
Non of the films can match Cronenbergs remake and the extras for this version are superb.
But lets face it,the chances of catching any of the earlier movies on tv are rare,get them while you can.
Heard a few complaints about the telepod packaging,but in the outer casing it looks excellent
i can not enlighten on the previous reviews a cracking box set,superb extras,great features and a really good scary box set.
