I love when a movie poster is totally wrong. There are no giant ants, the earth is not turned into a cemetery, the shiny dome does not catch on fire, and ants do not climb out of a bloody hole in a person's hand. The hole isn't bloody when they do that. Yeah, it's a … Continue reading Phase IV (1974)
Man, the '70s were weird. Exorcist II: The Heretic is not the most '70s film I've ever seen; that honor belongs to The Visitor. But this movie sure as hell is trying.

But soon INTEC's experimental cockroaches get loose, and food, … Continue reading The Nest (1988)

In some regions this movie was called Invasion of the Bodysuckers, which sounds like a porno, while in Australia it was called Insect...which is actually … Continue reading Blue Monkey (1987)
