Return of the Fly (1959)

Trivia: Whereas the first "The Fly" was in color, this sequel was actually filmed in black-and-white. This was reportedly a cost-saving measure, similar to how the film re-used many of the same sets from the first movie.

Return of the Fly (1959)

Trivia: The script was specifically written to be set almost entirely in the same locations from the original "The Fly," as the studio wanted to get more use out of the sets before they were scrapped.
