The technology in this film isn't very convincing yet, but the idea - you slowly turn into a human fly, giving you superhuman powers but also become a different life form - is interesting and horrifying at the same time (a bit like Frankenstein's monster is too) . The story created around this strong idea is not very original or deep but always captivating and amusing.
