Infested

If you gave a group of teenagers a camcorder, they could accurately recreate about 90% of this movie. Seriously. Shot on digital video, the movie looks absolutely threadbare, not helped by the fact that it all seems filmed on location with nothing added in the scene. The first third of the movie is, in fact, nothing more than actors standing and talking around outside or inside the house. Not just cheap, but BORING.

And then when the effects come in... oh dear. Even your average weekly dramatic TV series, if it ever uses CGI, will have it looking better than these CGI effects. Gore effects are at a minimum, though I must admit one effect concerning a leg looked both gruesome and pretty convincing.

The movie is not just boring - it is unbelievably STUPID. Characters keep doing things in the dumbest way possible, when anyone with some common sense probably wouldn't have taken long to get out the situation. These are not just stupid characters - they are ANNOYING characters. Not one of them is the least bit likable. They are especially unbearable when the movie decides to be humorous. Not only are they not funny, they are even more painful to observe.

What happened to Zach Galligan? Is he really that hard up for cash? Well, considering he was arrested for shoplifting not long ago from the date I write this... maybe he is.

This must be one of the most stupid and pointless movies I've ever seen. ok, so I figured that it wouldn't ever become a classic but still... there are limits. Not terrible bad actors but a horrible script and lousy directing.

Accually some of the special effects are rather good, but only the gory ones. Special effect showing the bugs looks like trash....

avoid at all costs 2/10

Movie-Man

This movie is fantastic. With the endless straight to video Creature Features, from the amazing (Shark Attack 3) to the lame

(Sasquatch) we've now entered the new b-movie generation. Sure, we don't have drive ins, but that ain't stopping filmmakers from making some of the greatest b-flicks since the 70s, and leading the pack so far is Infested. Smart, funny and never boring, it's shocking that this was not even considered for a theatrical release when junk like Cabin Fever is gaining a cult audience. On the bright side though, straight to video is not such a bad

place to be nowadays. So, call up your thirty something friends, make popcorn and you can all sit back and enjoy the masterpiece Infested. Then kill them all.

Amy Jo Johnson, the pink ranger herself and Zack Galligan of Gremlins and Waxwork fame, both put in appearances in this flick. When I see a movie poster with absolutely none of the main characters on it, there are only two explanations. Either the filmmakers are being secretive and hip, or the movie itself was hastily thrown together and they couldn't get their actors to show up for a photo shoot after it wrapped. This would be the latter. There isn't much to say about this film, really bad CGI vampiric bugs show up, due to some poorly explained government back-story. Stupid people do stupid things and don't hang around for a sequel. The bugs apparently fly into a human body, breed and control the carcass as a zombie to stay out of the sun. I would love an explanation as to how these bugs are capable of re-animating the dead. I have never seen such completely nonthreatening zombies. I do recommend a watch however, it was fun to see Zack Galligan doing his B-movie thing, and yes Amy Jo does have a rather lengthy shower scene, but sorry guys, the childhood fantasy of seeing her in the raw goes unfulfilled. Watch it with friends in the mood to laugh, but for a scare, look elsewhere.

This film is a catastrophe. It is amazing that some one actually created and produced this mix-up-crap of film. This movie has almost no dialogue, lost any sense of humuor and The whole point of the movie is missing. In addition the act in this movie are so awful that it goes beyond my imagination.

I really hope that every copy of this film will be eradicated in a not so distant future and that John Olsen is fired because of this horrible movie

Warning: Do not try to buy or borrow this movie. You will waste priceless time on it!!!!!!!!
