CAROLE GRAY & GEORGE BAKER BUZZ THROUGH 'CURSE OF THE FLY'

Carole Gray in CURSE OF THE FLY Year: 1965 Rating: ***1/2

In one of those cinematic examples of problems you want to have, George Baker's Martin Delambre, grandson of the original FLY David Hedison... whose father and brother are still working on a cure for their son/brother turning into the titular insect... is driving into Toronto, Canada when gorgeous brunette Carole Gray, wearing only sexy undergarments, runs by his vehicle... and within two more scenes they're married...

In what's more Alfred Hitchcock's REBECCA than a horror-genre continuation, most of the screen-time has the new wife feeling spooked and uncomfortable in the enigmatic family manor, that's also a laboratory...

Treated rudely by the help while eventually running into a few experiments gone bad (all the while dealing with whatever put her in that psych-ward in the first place), CURSE OF THE FLY belongs almost completely to Carole Gray while American import Brian Donlevy mainly spouts scientific dialogue to connect the previous installments...

Overall a neatly-timed, semi-suspenseful British-produced haunted-house thriller, falsely promoted as a creature-feature featuring one of the prettiest scream queens of all  time: soon to follow as a vampy antagonist in DEVILS OF DARKNESS and another victim-ingenue in ISLAND OF TERROR.
