Summary/Abstract: Insects are often depicted in mainstream movies as antagonists. And no wonder – they seem utterly alien to humans. Flies especially were always pariahs on the silver screen, ever since Frank Langelaan first wrote a short story in 1957 about an unfortunate experiment. Hollywood adapted this horror story to the movie screen twice, once in 1958 and then in 1986. This article is about body-horror, science gone awry, insect politics in (the original and the remade) The Fly movies.
