Deadly Stingers

This site claims that this movie is a comedy and an homage to the old giant bug movies from the 50s. It's far from being either. You only know it's supposed to be funny because they play whimsical music when you are supposed to laugh. Trust me, you won't laugh. The only thing it has in common with any 50s giant bug movie is that the "heroes" are very unlikely. The few funny things in this movie weren't even intended to be funny. The first victim has potted trees in his front yard, so they could return them after the shoot. And the sheriff wants to get a search warrant to make people talk to him. That's not how search warrants work. The end doesn't even make any sense. Nothing gets resolved. This is not the type of movie anybody should be watching.

They promised some 1950-style giant bugs. Those are as large as HOUSES. Here, they don't even have any bug, what there is appears shortly, and maybe as big as a dog, though it is inconsistent, sometimes they are the size of an adult.

The directing is even worse. Absolute incompetency on that field. Just the first scene has so many glaring errors it's too much.

Fail to see the comedy anywhere also, so this offers nothing to suggest watching, aside how not to make movie. Oh, and the after ending scene is just gross. Not funny, not erotic - simply gross.

I saw this bad boy at Flashback Weekend in Chicago area. It looked like it had a good budget so it looked nice but it was an awful film. The acting was horrible and the direction seemed off at times but on at others. But the budget seemed to be big. The effects weren't that great either which is big in this type of film. I wouldn't give it another minute of my time so if the end of the world comes and this is the only movie left to watch then I'm killing myself.

This film is for those of you who like the ingredients of Sci-Fi mixed with horror and a sprinkle of comedy. The wonderfully written and directed storyline keeps you involved and begging for more. The actors brilliantly bring the characters into reality and the special effects are first-rate. This film is a definite `must see'.

i watched this movie at the flashbacks horror convention in park ridge il at the pickwick theater and it was really nice. its about these people that dump toxic waste in a desert and these scorpions get into it and turn in to huge 6 foot mutant scorpions. then they go around and kill people and these young adults in a mental home get blamed for it. the gore is good, as allways is in a bookwalter movie. when this bad boy comes out, buy it. 7 out of 10
