Wow, it's like the studios are getting away from the "catch the average consumer's eye with something flashy and gaudy" mentality that's plagued this hobby for so long, and moving to something with a little style.

Excellent, and I love the art, but it would've been nice to also get the sequel so I can retire my old double feature DVD.

Or all 3 of the films in "The Fly Collection".

I'd pay a little more to have a 2nd disc with "Return of the Fly" and "Curse of the Fly".

The only features on the box set's "Disc of Horrors" not included on The Fly blu-ray are a trailer for each film and several photo galleries for each film.

Oh well, if they sell a double feature of the above later I'll gladly pick it up for "Curse of the Fly". It's a really great little visual treat like a baby Hammer film.

I'll double dip if they add the other 2. If not, then I will have to see how good they restored it. It might be like the "BLOB." The SD upscaled to 1080i is very near the HD Criterion of it.
