In this sci-fi horror film, a brilliant but eccentric scientist, Seth Brundle, creates a teleportation device that can transport inanimate objects through thin air. Eager to perfect his invention, Seth decides to test it on himself, unaware that a housefly has entered the device with him. As a result, he undergoes a monstrous transformation, slowly becoming a hybrid of human and fly. His journalist girlfriend, Veronica Quaife, documents his progress and tries to help him as he struggles to maintain his humanity. But as Seth's fly-like characteristics become more pronounced, he begins to lose control and lash out in violent fits, putting Veronica and others in danger.
