You can tell you are not in the 1950s anymore in this 3rd Fly film

You can tell you are not in the 1950s anymore as the film opens with a salacious scene. The lovely and sultry Carol Grey wriggles out a window in her white nylon bra and panties under a very reflective full moon. She runs away in slow motion giving the leering audience every possible angle of her shapely buttocks jiggling down the lawn. Not only was this an obvious pandering but a significant step away from 50's button-down, pearl necklace sensibilities. She runs away from a lunatic asylum to be picked up by a scientist (who obviously had more sex in mind than good samaritan). Unfortunately he's part of the experiments started in the Fly.Vincent Price is not in this Fly film since by this time he was under contract to another studio. However, I found this film to be better than its reputation. The Delambres, despite what has happened in the two previous films, have continued to experiment with the teleporter. The result has been more subtle but just has horrific. Now the Delambres are a family with various physical and mental ailments that are in danger of disintegration if an answer cannot be found. Oddly enough, after all the tragedy, they still think the answer to their troubles is the the teleporter. Many people don't like this film because it is quite a departure from the first two, but I think that is its strength.The production code may not be dead at this point, but it is on life support. Plus this film was made in the UK and not subject to the old production code anyways. Probably worth a look if you liked the first two.

Third and worst of the Fly trilogy

The Curse of the Fly is the third and the worst of the three Fly movies. This was made in Britain in 1965, six years after The Return of the Fly and has very little to do with the first two Fly movies.

The son of the original inventor of the transportation machine is continuing with his experiments and as a result of these, he has created mutants which he is keeping locked up in his mansion. At the end, the transporter is destroyed.

Despite this movie being rather disappointing, it has a decent cast: Brian Donlevy (The Quatermass Xperiment, Quatermass 2), George Baker (Inspecter Wexford in The Ruth Rendall Mysteries), Carole Gray (Island of Terror) and Burt Kwouk (who can currently be seen in Last of the Summer Wine).

Despite the above, Curse of the Fly is not totally unwatchable.

Rating: 2 stars out of 5.
