Watch The Fly For Free

Good movie, but best of all time? Hardly . . .

Excellent but underrated film

everything you have heard about this movie is true.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

If he has the head part of the fly, then he would have the brains of a fly, his brains are in the other half. So how come.....

There is a reason this is still a hyped Sci-Fi Horror of the 1950s. It's first and foremost a Drama but the aspect of the Sci-Fi Horror will take center stage.It is a very good movie concerning the scientist Andre Delambre and his wife Helene. Helene calls François Delambre, Andre's brother, with some very bad news as the story begins. Later we learn that Andre is working on a teleportation machine, he shows his wife and she is delighted. But one day disaster strikes - it's Andre that it happens to and it concerns a fly.I find the most haunting scene of all was with the cat. The echo of it's meow when the experiment failed... chilling.The main differences between The Fly 1958 and 1986 are: 1) 1958 two separate entities (man and fly), 1986 man and fly are fused as one.2) 1958 is much less graphic but has a more satisfying story. 1986 is more graphic. It is relying more on the special effects than the story but the story is still pretty good but less satisfying. Both films are very tragic and worth watching.I love both the 1958 and 1986 films but the 1958 has the edge for me personally. I love the way the 1958 story is told and Vincent Price adds an extra special touch.8.5/10

Vincent price gets a slower roleIf your a fan of slow drama and Price this movie is still quite the thing. No matter how many times it is re made so far, the original story has not been approached. Will it ever be? Can even cgi put together a human, a fly, and a cat. Cat? yes the original story includes a cat too, the fur balls do not fit with special effects and the animal rights people might not like the add on. This story illustrates a transporter before star trek. Just remember this time Captain Kirk is not transported into a woman and Spock is not an animal eaten by a spider. Price is excellent even if he is a bit stuffy being a sort of Detective cop.

Now, when it comes to movies, anything that's hokey or flawed in the movie lets me give it an imperfect rating, whether it be 0 or 99. The Fly didn't have that kind of flaw. The acting was completely well done, the creature had an actual background, and there was enough mystery, suspense, and horror to make this romance movie well done. I suppose my favorite thing about the movie was the acting. None of them were bad in any way. Plus, the story had some truly and unforgettably iconic moments. The Fly is definitely a perfect movie. I believe it is best you watch this movie without knowing anything about it. Otherwise, you may have an idea of what's going on. If you know nothing, then you'll expect nothing. If you expect nothing, you will not be subject to any disappointment. The Fly, in my opinion, is a perfect movie. Not even some of the movie world's most memorable films rival this.
