But then it seemed to be more along the lines of his human endoskeleton becoming the fly's exoskeleton, and much of the outer flesh dropped off as his limbs began flexing and unfolding in new ways, immediately after his jaw was pushed off. Shedding the face was probably the most gruesome part.

I like transformations and stuff, it's an interesting subject, but I hate the ones where they don't realize it. The whole concept of losing yourself freaks me out so much.
I think that's maybe what scares me. If you take the Lockean view that identity is really defined by the memories and experiences you share with your younger self, then you're really not yourself any more. Even though it's your body (or something made from it), it's essentially something else inhabiting it. That's creepy.
