Keep your flyswatters handy and watch the teleporter booths this Saturday, September 12, as Svengoolie presents the 1958 sci-fi horror masterpiece The Fly!
Filmed in glorious CinemaScope and Deluxe Color, this iconic classic stars Al Hedison (David Hedison) as the dedicated scientist Andre Delambre, whose groundbreaking matter-transportation experiment goes catastrophically wrong when a common housefly enters the chamber with him. Co-starring horror legend Vincent Price and Patricia Owens, the film weaves a tragic, suspenseful mystery leading up to one of the most famous, spine-chilling climaxes in cinema history: “Help meee!”
While Andre struggles with his new compound eyes and claw, the Sven Squad will be buzzing with plenty of winged puns, fascinating trivia about the film’s groundbreaking makeup effects, and a swarm of flying rubber chickens. Don’t get caught in the web—tune in to MeTV at 8P | 7C for a night of unforgettable vintage thrills!
