The Curse Of The Fly is the third instalment of the original series of films born out of the short story written by George Langelaan. Here in this one, a vast improvement on the awful Return Of The Fly, we are with the descendants of doomed Andre Delambre from the first and best original feature film. The links and time frames are rather tenuous, but the basic core of matter transportation still remains, with obviously less than great experimentation results!. Playing out more as a science fiction thriller than a outright horror picture, Curse Of The Fly has oodles of atmosphere and a genuine feel of a tragic melodrama, it also boasts the watchable talent of Brian Donlevy as Henri Delambre. It opens with a fabulous sequence and ends with a very satisfying conclusion, while the make up effects of the creepers certainly don't embarrass the film at all. For sure there is the usual cheese that comes with this up and down genre, but as low grade genre films go, this one most definitely holds up rather well. 6/10
