There's definitely a decent story here, and pretty strong character development. It wasn't at all boring, in my opinion. The rising tension is done effectively, and we believe every decision each character makes. Also, the ending was appropriate and not overly contrived. It did at times, however, feel like the actors were kind of *playing* at being country bumpkins with a tough start in life. That is, the acting didn't feel entirely authentic. The actress who plays Paula, for example, went way over the top with the melodrama. I was rolling my eyes at her a little by the end. I felt similar about the actor who played Noel. Just a little too much screaming and kicking when a bit more subtlety would have been much more effective. It made me think of the movie Affliction, an indie drama from (I believe, without checking) the '90s, starring Nick Nolte and Sissy Spacek. It's the same kind of themes but much better acting. Anyway, Black Fly is a decent watch even if it's a bit forgettable.

Real life horror. Suspenseful and gritty. Dont listen to the poor ratings. This film was an excellent thriller with good performances very well done despite the low budget. I would like to see more from this director.

I just happened across this searching for something to stream. This was so much movie for what was obviously not a big studio budget. If you've ever known someone who is just way more crazy than you're comfortable with, this will probably be traumatic. 😜 Great acting. Gritty, furious ride.

Give it a shot! Not a bad indie film. Stays intense and has that "Dileverance" backwoods kinda feel.

One sort of groans when the phrase "Inspired by true events" or some such is emblazoned within the precis of a film. You know that there's a 75% chance of it being boring, apart from the bits that take a tad of artistic license. This film falls easily into that 75%. I mean basically you know what happens if someone hacks off a multi-gun owning slack-jawed yokel nut job, by boffing their partner or in any other way - death - and, of course, it does happen, several times in fact. To make matters worse, there are several loose ends with unanswered questions. Don't waste 90 minutes on this - starts boringly and doesn't get much better The only good thing about it is that it says a lot for tightening gun laws.

From the opening yelling to the ending shocker this movie gives you 88 full minutes of edge of your seat intensity. Smart, quick, well managed film making. Hardly a flaw in the whole thing. If you do not like violent people, violent times, innocence gone awry in the hope of redemption, violence solving your problems in a twisted sort of way then this isn't your movie. But, if you have 88 minutes to spare for some damn good movie making then this is it!

Apparently this film is inspired by true events so that may be the reason why there aren't any crazy "twists" to speak of. The casting and pacing is good and the production value high. It doesn't really add anything new to the "redneck loses his marbles so let the massacre begin" genre but I found it entertaining despite not caring much for any of characters. The younger brother protagonist is nice enough but not much time was devoted to his backstory nor did he do that much to be super likeable IMO. He was nice enough and obviously going through tough times but I didn't feel compelled to root for him. The girlfriend was a neurotic mess who would probably jump off a cliff if told to do so. The antagonist older brother was acted out just fine but at the end of the day he was basically just another easily triggered psychopath with zero empathy. If you subscribe to a video service that includes this then ypu might want to give it a go but I wouldn't spend money to rent it. 6 stars from me.

Masterful in concept, acting, execution. You cannot look away. This is a high caliber movie in every way, every shot, every nuance -far more than meets the eye. I am amazed by what I saw. Perfect delivery in every scene.

Came across this in my prime movies based on my preferences. Yes the cinematography catches detail but all I was honestly left with was questions and feeling unsatisfied. I guess if you have an hour and a half to be occupied this will take up your time.
