La nuée

The Swarm: Quirky French film about a female farmer raising locusts as animal feed. Times are tough and it's difficult for her make a living and support her children. By chance she discovers that the locusts thrive on blood, when she can't get animal blood she uses her own then feeds animals to them. Also elements of satire and social commentary about how small farmers literally have the blood sucked out of them. But horror it is, with the locusts developing a taste for blood and attacking animals in a swarm. There is something really eerie about the way the locusts' behaviour evolves. Rather disturbing than outright jump shocks. This ain't cricket. Might have been a better film with ten minutes shaved off of it's 1h 40m running time. Directed by Just Philippot from a script by Frank Victor. On Netflix. 7/10.

Feel like an original story even though animal horror in a small town is nothing new. So I expected something different from a Hollywood clone and yes, bingo! This's a right shot. The whole movie has successfully created an eerie, suspending atmosphere. Unlike Hollywood clones, it doesn't depend on any sudden sound effect to make u scream and jump up. Simply, it's kinda gradual sense of horror.

Still, the movie has it rough edges. The ending doesn't make a good sense. It's not that bad, but just could be way better if the director knows that humans are not the only living organism in the woods ;)

This movie is def not for everyone. If u r not fond of slow pace horror movies, then stay away from it.

The movie has a good and interesting idea, but the execution is kinda poor, some of the decisions didnt made a lot of sense. But the metaphor is there.

And for Movi3DO, the movie is French, not Spanish.

I mean its fine , look.... the 70's and 80's of this type of movies were far more engaging , and locusts are not that aggressive and smart to begin with. The Plot ? Dont ask , its weak,, and so i give this movie a 6 cause this film feels it was rushed.

Well acted, bug theme horror movie. Will make your skin crawl. People always screwing around with nature and nature doesn't take too kindly to these upsets. Humans are so greedy for more, bigger, better, faster and don't care what the damage and sacrifice is to ALL Around them. Worth a watch for sure!
