Review of The Fly II

The Fly II (1989)
3/10
What a turd

Garbage sequel to David Cronenberg's remake of The Fly. This one's about the son of the Goldblum and Davis characters from that movie as he grows to adulthood in five years and eventually starts to turn into a human fly thing, all the while being manipulated by an Evil Rich Guy. Honestly, who cares? It probably took them an hour to write the script for this. The movie stars Eric Stoltz and he's kind of expressionless through the whole thing (perhaps intentionally). It's directed by Chris Walas, who handled the special effects on the Cronenberg film. As you might expect, there's a lot of effects here, particularly of the gross-out variety. But the whole thing looks dingy and cheap. It's a movie full of clichés with little to recommend in its favor unless you're a gorehound.
