Advantages: engaging interesting story Disadvantages: Some wooden acting, editing of the film
Lord of the Flies ? 1963
Today, this story is probably not as powerful as it was back in 1963 when it was filmed or in 1954 when William Golding?s book was published. These days we have all become desensitised to the violence and random, meaningless killings that seem to happen on a daily basis, especially in this day and age when children whom are only three or four years older than those depicted in the film do far worse things than was ever shown within the running time of this feature.

The film is set during an unspecified period of time where tensions about Nuclear holocaust are running high. Children are being evacuated, although they are being evacuated from the country rather than out to the country side ...
Advantages: Great story and acting Disadvantages: none
The Fly is a horror/science fiction film directed by David Cronenberg. The screenplay was written by Charles Edward Pogue and David Cronenberg, which was based on a story written by George Langelaan. The film was released in 1986. This is a loose remake of the 1958 film The Fly, starring Vincent Price. A sequel was made to this film, called The Fly 2.
This film is about Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum), a scientist researching the field of matter teleportation. He manages to successfully get his research to work, but after trying to teleport himself, he is inadvertently transported along with a fly. This proves to be a disaster as his genes are fused with that of the fly's and he mutates into a hideous monster. Brundle must attempt to reverse the mutation, but struggles in this endeavour. Genna Davis plays Brundle's love interest ...

DVD Description
Includes both of the classic FLY movies. In the original THE FLY, a scientist experimenting with teleportation accidentally exchanges his head with that of a housefly. In RETURN OF THE FLY the scientist's son, years later, replicates his father's experiments a little too closely. A pair of sci-fi/horror classics that spawned a remake in the 1980s.
