The Millennium Bug (2011)
It’s December 31st, 1999, and the world anxiously awaits the year 2000. Hoping to escape the Y2K computer glitch known as the “millennium bug,” Byron Haskin takes his new wife and teenage daughter camping in the isolated Sierra Diablos mountains. But madness finds them in the form of the Crawford clan, a family of in-bred hillbillies who abduct the Haskins in order to refresh their stagnant gene pool. As the Haskins fight for their lives, death and bloody carnage ensue, but neither they nor the Crawfords are aware of the monstrous horror hibernating beneath the forest floor. Unseen for 1,000 years, this millennium bug is hungry... and December 31st just happens to be its birthday.

    avoid at all cost!

    What schlock. Don't waste your time. Other reviewers have explained the tragedy of this movie. Its not really about the Millenium Bug event at all, more like a gore saw film in tandem with Deliverance. Enough said!

    Big bugs....i'd rather go to the garden and eat worms...

    Great B movie SALUTE!! I have missed this format of movie making , CGI has gotten old and too expected in a flick. This is hands on monster model making and blood and gore. ...a lot of good old fashioned hands on work was put into this flick. I didn't know what to expect from this rare find of a flick!! This obviously took hard work and dedication to an old way of movie making not practiced for a long time due to digital taking everything over. the digital world is fine when used properly and it has its place. Great blood and gore effects through the whole movie!! John Charles Meyer kicks ass in his character does the rest of the cast!!

    Good creature effects, shame about the rest of the movie

    The makers of 'millennium bug' must have realised the dilemma they faced before they started shooting but carried on regardless. That dilemma is how do you make a feature length movie when you are really good at creating monster effects but lousy at everything else.The answer is quite simple : rip off (very badly) characters and ideas from successful genre flicks , in this case the sawyer family from the Texas chainsaw massacre, story tropes from the backwards horror subgenre and then copy and paste them to the template of any bog standard monster movie Also bathe every scene in retina damaging lighting to detract from the ultra fake looking sets. lastly cast the most hammy and hysterical amateur thespians to delivery your dreary and cliched dialogue. One of the film companies involved in this movie is called no CGI films and yes 'millennium bug' can claim to some damn fine tangible creature effects work, on the flipside i wouldn't be surprised if no talent for script writing films, we're also involved. 3 for the effects, 1 for the rest of the film

    Gotta love the Crawfords

    Independent movies always rock, but this one was well done. Great camera angles, great sound, and great BUG. No CGI, couldn't have been pulled off better! I loved the over the top acting of the Crawfords.

    I'm from the Midwest and we see families like this all the time, right? Makes for great entertainment and my favorite is Fij Crawford. The Bug was interesting in it's movement, very realistic, not sure how I know how a giant bug moves, but looked scary enough to me. Not sure what to make of the birth scene, but made good subject to talk about around the water cooler. What will an earlier version of the Bug look like? Prequel, sequel, bring it on, can't wait... Viva la Bug!
