The Fly : Funny how Vincent Price…

Funny how Vincent Price…

It always made me wonder why exactly The Fly was listed as a huge horror role for Vincent Price. He doesn't even play the main part, unlike say his other 50's hits at the time (House of Wax, House on Haunted Hill) and yet this is one of the films that cemented his status as Hollywood's leading man of horror.

I think that the first half of the movie belongs to Vincent Price. He was happy to be third in the cast, even though his presence must have been the biggest draw for people to see this.

Yes, today was my first time seeing the film. I was always under the impression it was Vincent Price that was turned into the fly/human hybrid since everywhere I've seen lists him as the star of the film. But to my surprise, his role was kind of small although it was still memorable.
