JustAnother I So bad that it is actually good! Huge gaint ticks, and bad acting make this a must match for all who love B-Horror movies! Great film for first dates! Hahaha(not really) Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/05/24 Full Review Craig B For what it is, Ticks is a mildly entertaining 'monster' flick...it does not try to pretend to be something it is not. Very silly, interesting creature effects plus some ridiculous 'squelching' sound effects to accompany the many occassions the over-sized Ticks are killed under a stomping boot. The young cast led by a baby-faced Seth Green seem to be having a pretty good time of it. One to watch for some brainless killer-monster fun and creepy moments over popcorns and brewskies / cocktails Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/15/23 Full Review sean s This "straight to video" movie was originally called "Infested" and is not too bad, but not real good either. The ticks and associated Icky special effects in this were very well done. This movie is one of those "creature feature" type movies but shot in the 1990s. It is funny seeing a very young Seth Green, the Carlton Banks character from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Ron Howard's little brother who always plays a goofy and disturbing character. You will remember the "I am Infested!" scene. This movie was better than most of these types of movies. It passed the time if you are into those sort of things. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Tony Randel made Hellbound: Hellraiser II and I always hunted down his direct to video movies as a result. Like Amityville 1992: It's About Time and Fist of the North Star. Ticks is another example, a movie with a cast packed with genre favorites — Seth Green, Clint Howard — and recognizable faces — Alfonso Ribeiro, Peter Scolari, Ami Dolenz — in a movie about exactly what you think it's about. Ticks. Jarvis Tanner (Howard) has been growing a super strain of marijuana that has mutated the local population of ticks, just in time for a camp for bad teens starts up, which includes Tyler Burns (Green), Darrel "Panic" Lumley (Ribeiro), Dee Dee Davenport (Dolenz), Rome Hernandez (Ray Oriel) and Kelly Mishimoto (Dina Dayrit) who are guided by Holly Lambert (Rosalind Allen) and Charles Danson (Scolari), who has brought along his daughter Melissa (Virginya Keehne). If you're an animal fan, well…perhaps this is not the movie for you, as a hamster and a dog get infected by the ticks and immediately die, which leads to Riberio getting a dramatic speech about just what his dog meant. The rest of the film has ticks burrow deep into human beings and cause no small level of calamity. Personally, I hate ticks. Remember that lyme disease comes from them. Darryl Hall, of Hall and Oates, nearly died from the lyme disease he got from a tick that he claims came from a deer and as a result, he hates deer. Like, the dude violently hates deer. This was written by Brent V. Friedman, who created the TV show Dark Skies and wrote Hollywood Hot Tubs 2: Educating Crystal, Syngenor, American Cyborg: Steel Warrior, Pet Store and has worked on a few of the Halo and Call of Duty games. Speaking of video games, he also wrote Mortal Kombat: Annihilation. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member It's a silly as hell schlock-fest, but there's quite a bit of fun to be had with the over-the-top performances and all the gooey special effects. It's a fun midnight movie. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 06/12/22 Full Review justin t Pretty gross and pretty average MST3K style b-movie horror. There is a big monster and it kills people. The monster is particularly horrible looking. It is still using ropey special effects like normal. Worth watching for Seth Green but Alfonso Ribeiro is just plain annoying. Story is silly. Effects are acceptable. Not scary or a classic but still worthy of viewing time for cheesy fun.
