Description: "David Hedison, who plays a tiny human-headed insect menaced by a spider at the climax of the sci-fi classic The Fly (1958), says the moviemakers spoiled the scene by giving him a squeaky voice. "Imagine if, as the camera moved in closer, you actually heard me screaming for my life," the actor rhapsodizes. "That is horror. That is horror."".

"In Tom Weaver's eighth interview book, Hedison - and 22 other moviemakers - talk about their horror and science fiction experiences as part of such films and TV series as The Blob, It Came from Outer Space, Tarzan the Ape Man, Star Trek, The Wild Wild West, Somewhere in Time, The Devil Bat and Forbidden Planet."--BOOK JACKET.
