Audience Member An earthquake uproots cockroach-like bugs that can set fire to things and, more importantly for a horror film, also to animals and humans. But never fear, a biology professor played by Bradford Dillman is on the case. This great little 70's B movie is directed by Jeannot Szwarc (who would go on to make the hugely enjoyable Jaws 2 and the brilliant campfest that is Supergirl) and produced by William Castle (no introduction needed). Gorgeous Californian locations, bugs setting cats alight (is it un-PC to find this hilariously entertaining?) and also crawling into huge teased 70's women's hairdos and letting rip. This is a great popcorn movie. But then the movie changes course and gets all metaphysical as the film's designated bug expert starts to research the incendiary insects in greater depth and even starts to communicate with them! This is the kind of film that you could stumble upon on a late night TV channel and absolutely love. A low-key joy.

Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member The macro bug photography is nice and there's a lot that works in a trashy 70's b-movie sort of way but all in all it's just boring. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member I was actually enjoying this one at first but it just grows tedious beyond belief. The dialogues become a snore fest, the plot moves nowhere and it just doesn't go over the top like it could've. It also has a way too serious tone for a movie that is, essentially, about bugs that set shit on fire with their asses. Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/28/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a movie about mutant fire breathing cockroaches from beneath the earths crust... Still with me? Great, if you read that and didn't immediately move on to a different movie, you'll probably love this movie. It comes from a time when mutant animals could attack Small Town USA without having "Mega" attached to it's name. If you like the old style of creature features, then you'll probably love this one too. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Read all reviews
