In 'The Fly' scientist Seth Brundle (Jeff Goldblum) uses himself as a guinea-pig in his experiments with transmitting matter, but is unaware that a fly has got into the machinery. He embarks on a relationship with Veronica Quaife (Geena Davis), the journalist covering his project, and they are both surprised when his body begins to take on fly-like characteristics. In 'The Fly 2', Seth is no more, but he has left behind a gruesome legacy: the teleportation device which transformed him into a human fly, and a son, Martin, who is infected with his father's insect metabolism. Martin grows at a hugely accelerated rate, and he is soon a fully-grown man, keen to pick up the experiments where Seth left off.
