     In the last of the original Fly shockers nary a fly can be seen; instead we get a bunch of mutated freaks locked away on a Canadian estate. Grandson of the original fly is now reluctantly carrying on the family legacy, despite glaring imperfections in design and function. While on a business trip he runs across a woman sprinting away from a mental institution in nothing but her delicates. Within the week they marry (of course), he takes her back home to teleport central, she begins to see odd creatures when he’s away, one of which turns out to be a specter from hubby’s past: his wife, now just another failed experiment, locked away out back. Are these things real or is she, in fact, delusional? Forgettable entry that poses the final question “Is this the End?”. If there is mercy, please let it be.
