Masters of Horror: The Screwfly Solution

Joe Dante

Overview

The battle of the sexes turns to all-out war in director Joe Dante's season-two episode of Showtime's Masters of Horror series. Based on a story by author Raccoona Sheldon and adapted for the screen by Sam Hamm, The Screwfly Solution tracks the progression of a vicious virus that transforms average men into murderous maniacs who impulsively attack every woman who crosses their path. When a suburban housewife and her teenage daughter set out in search of sanctuary, it doesn't take long for them to realize just how difficult it will be to escape an entire gender of homicidal psychopaths. Jason Priestley and Elliott Gould star as devoted scientists racing to find a cure for the virus before it's too late.
