Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThis film was rarely seen for many years after its original release in 1965. As a result of this, it was the only one of the original "Fly" films that never received a VHS or LaserDisc release. It did not even receive a home video premiere at all until 2007, when it was released on DVD for the first time ever, in "The Fly Collection", a 4-disc box set that contained both it and the previous two films in the trilogy, The Fly (1958) and Return of the Fly (1959), as well as a special features DVD.
- GoofsIn the film, during a conversation about the Delambre family legacy, a photograph is shown of the Fly from the film Return of the Fly (1959). It is said that the Fly in the photograph is Andre Delambre (David Hedison) from The Fly (1958), but the photograph is actually of Philippe Delambre (Brett Halsey), the son of Andre, from Return of the Fly (1959). There were no photographs taken of the Fly by anyone in either of the previous two films in the original "Fly" trilogy, so this photograph should not even exist in this one, the third and final film in it.
- Quotes
Albert Delambre: You're not God, you're not even human. You murdered those men and you made me a murderer too.
- Crazy creditsAt the end of the closing credits: "Is this the end?"
- Alternate versionsThe UK cinema version was cut by the BBFC to reduce a shot of 2 previously teleported victims inside a glass cabinet in Albert Delambre's laboratory. The 2006 DVD is uncut.

Featured review
The Curse of the Fly is the third and the worst of the three Fly movies. This was made in Britain in 1965, six years after The Return of the Fly and has very little to do with the first two Fly movies.
The son of the original inventor of the transportation machine is continuing with his experiments and as a result of these, he has created mutants which he is keeping locked up in his mansion. At the end, the transporter is destroyed.
Despite this movie being rather disappointing, it has a decent cast: Brian Donlevy (The Quatermass Xperiment, Quatermass 2), George Baker (Inspecter Wexford in The Ruth Rendall Mysteries), Carole Gray (Island of Terror) and Burt Kwouk (who can currently be seen in Last of the Summer Wine).
Despite the above, Curse of the Fly is not totally unwatchable.
Rating: 2 stars out of 5.
