Double bill following the adventures of two generations of
scientists who get a real buzz out of their work. In 'The Fly'
(1958), scientist Andre Delambre becomes so obsessed with
developing a molecular matter transmitter that he attempts to test
the invention himself. However, when a fly sneaks into the
transportation pod with him, the consequences of the experiment
soon become clear, with the scientist taking on a number of
alarmingly fly-like characteristics. In the sequel, 'Return of the
Fly' (1959), Delambre's son Phillipe reconstructs the matter
transporter and begins a series of experiments which lead him down
the same insectoid path.

they will not be allowed to pass safely through the Indians' land.
