First week of September brings us The Fly:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

When a scientist (David Hedison) attempts to transfer matter through space,
\nthings go horrifically wrong and two grotesque man-fly hybrids are created. Now,
\nwith the head of a fly and a wing in place of one of his arms, the scientist
\ndesperately hopes that he, his wife (Patricia Owens) and his brother (Vincent
\nPrice) can capture the other mutant and reverse the experiment.<\/p>\n
