Product Description:

THE FLY (1958): 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 1950s (RETURN OF THE FLY and CURSE OF THE FLY) before starting another cycle in the 1980s, beginning with David Cronenberg's remake.

THE FLY (1986): This version of THE FLY is an update of the original horror classic about a brilliant scientist who develops a machine that molecularly transports objects in seconds, but inadvertently combines his DNA with that of a fly. Jeff Goldblum gives an outstanding performance as Seth Brundle, the heart-wrenching victim. David Cronenberg's classic won an Academy Award for Best Makeup.
