No reviews yet for this little gem, so I'll go ahead.
I went in expecting a low budget campy horror B-movie and wow, I certainly did not expect a movie that good in overall.
Most of the actors are quite good, even the extras, and the main character and his entourage are surprisingly well developed for this kind of movie.
I wouldn't call the movie fast=paced, but the action in well maintained throughout and starts after less than 10 minutes, so no long buildup, the bugs are there at the beginning, you get to know more about them as the movie goes so there are no long boring explanations.
The CGI is very well done and keeps you in the movie and there are plenty of bugs of a few kinds.
But what really did the movie for me was the dark humor, think Shaun of the Dead, but with insects. Even if the movie has a serious tone, you always get some well done jokes here and there, mostly by the likable anti-hero that just seems to try so hard.
A must see for the horror/comedy fans and for the critters fans in general.
