#1 Cheap Infestation Reviews
Available at Amazon Limited Special Price!! See Now!!
I first saw this on SyFy (swy fwy as I now pronounce it)and thought it was tremendous fun! Usually CGI SyFy premieres are horrible and they hardly keep my interest but this movie really was a standout.
I wouldn't call this film terrific as it has it's faults but it was very entertaining! This film reminded me of the creature films from the late 70's, Empire of the Ants, Food of the Gods etc...
The films plot is based around a swarm of very large "bugs" invading a town. The movie starts off normal with a guy going to work and is about to get fired for always being late and not taking his job seriously when a loud high pitched screech is heard and then he wakes up on the floor covered in webs. He takes the web off his face and is sick immediately. He revives a few people around him when he sees a gigantic beetle and he starts to fight it.
The bug infestation only gets worse and he revives more and more people. This band of people then try to find out where these bugs are coming from and eventually find the "source" of the infestation.
This movie is really played for laughs but it does turn on a seconds notice. One minute your laughing and then the next they jump right into some horror elements. While the film is not gory it does have it's share of nasty effects and it is paced very well.
This movie will remind people of Alien 4, The Nest and the remake of The Thing in some places but it is still a very original flick. If you want to have a good time with an old fashioned style creature film, you will definitely enjoy this film.

THERE WILL BE BUGS - Michael Butts - Martinsburg, WV USA
Surprisingly effective giant bug movie with good effects and a wry sense of humor. Christopher Marquette makes good work of his role as the geeky antihero while Ray Wise is perfect as his military fanatic father. The low budget thriller doesn't look cheap and has a great musical score. I haven't decided about the ending but it's admittedly courageous.
All in all a pleasant surprise.
