In this movie from Kurt Neumann, made in 1958 with stars like the distinctive Vincent Price, David Hedison (as André Delambre) and the beautiful Patricia Owens, has been a very interessting theme regrounded.

The half human, half fly monster looks great! But not even the mask of the fly head and arm is great, the sounds when the monster slurps his dinner is fantastic for the viewer. You know what is happening, but you get shivers, while thinking about it!
The monster dies and at the end the brother of André and the detective found the other part of the experiment. The fly with a human head, captured in a spiderweb and the spider ends this story...
