The first Puppet Master and Sleepwalkers. I love Puppet Master mainly because I'm fond of the puppets but Sleepwalkers was horrible. That movie had a lot of potential and just didn't deliver.

Almost bought that one on two occasions...guess Im glad I didnt.

Anyway, I just wanted to get this review up before I slip into my alter ego:


Return of the Fly


In my opinion, The Fly was one of Mr. Price's weakest roles. It was a pretty good movie on it's other merits, however he simply wasnt at his best. Reviving his character in this mediocre sequel didnt help much either. Dont get me wrong, I enjoyed the film, but it's not hard to tell that it was made purely to cash in on the original's success. The biggest indicator of this is the plot, which is contrived and hard to believe. I dont mean the science-fiction parts were hard to believe; they made just as much sence as ever. The unbeliveable part was how poor ol' Philipe becomes "the Fly". Other than the derivative plot, this is a bit better than most cheesy sci-fi/horror flicks from the era. Though, as Ive said, it's far from his best role, Price's presence is what elevates this to a higher level. The effects were good for the time as well, especially the guinea-pig/man. The hands on the guinea-pig looked pretty bad, but the guy looked great! The fly suit was better in the original, the head grew about 5 times as big for this! There are also some horribly cheesy lines, my personal favourite being "He may have the murderous brain of a fly!". Overall this isnt a bad film if you're into this kind of movie, but it's flawed and not as good as the original.

6.5/10
