Goofs:
Crew or equipment visible: When Alan is about to run the detective's car into the lake, he first takes a rock and places it on the gas pedal of the car. During that scene, when he is leaning into the driver's side of the car, an arm reaches up for the steering wheel - obviously the stunt driver who was going to drive the "driverless" car. moreQuotes:
[first lines]Francois Delambre: [voice over] Here passes from this earth Helene Delambre, widow of my brother, Andre, whom I loved deeply, hopelessly. She was destroyed in the end by dreadful memories, a recollection of horrors that did not dim as the years went on, but instead grew monstrously, and left her mind shocked and unsteady, so that death, when it came, was a blessed release.

I was not sure what to expect as all of the plans and equipment were destroyed in the first movie but leave it up to screen writers to force a plot from the ashes. Philippe Delambre has grown up and refuses to listen to his uncle, Francois Delambre "Vincent Price" from the first feature. Uncle tries to stop Philippe from following the experiments that killed Andre Delambre and lead to the death of Helene Delambre, Philippe's mother. The boy has become a hard headed and stubborn man that blackmails Francois into funding the experiments of "matter transfer." Philippe's friend, a fellow scientist Alan Hinds plays the part of murderer and traitor. Because of Alan's greed, Philippe ends up becoming what his father did, a "fly-man" but very different, this monster seeks out and kills. That is what sets this film as different, the first film had love as a motive of the lone killing whereas this film, revenge is the centerpiece. There is certainly more action in this film but it lacks the sympathy the first one displays. Still, to watch both films in order is a worthwhile adventure.
