The Screwfly Solution


Is it just me or does this episode look like it was filmed like a Soap Opera? The cinematography and camera style just looked kinda cheap like how soap operas are filmed.

Thats what i love about these high school girls, i get older they stay the same age.

It was the episode that scared me the most in a human way. With all the anti women crap, mass murder of women from hateful men. Watching it again now is freaky. And no, I am not a man hater. I have a wonderful husband and two amazing sons. However you can't deny that violence against women is scary.

Yeah. Its my least favorite of the series.

It did seem to predict all the gender conflict of the present day, didn't it?

Overall the quality of films in the Masters of Horror series varied much, but the Screwfly Solution is one of my favourite films in the series. It is shocking if you read about cases of domestic violence, but what if ALL men turned violent against women simultaneously? That was a really creepy twist.

Too much stuff for just an 50 min episode, and too little money.
Still, the best thing of the series.

A lot of episodes of this series are way better than Screwfly, i.e.

The Fair Haired Child
Incident On and Off a Mountain Road
The Black Cat
Dreams in the Witch House
Family
Pick Me Up
Cigarette Burns
Right to Die
