alexxpolska The fun factor is huge and that's is what matter. I liked the story and the talented Meghan Heffern, the actress who played the role of "Cami"in Insecticidal. I think the effects are not the crucial point to make a good movie. The concept of good movies is subjective. There are movies with great story and bad effects and so the opposite. I founded the DVD here in Brazil and enjoyed, the image quality is not bad. I'm a B-movie and horror movie fanatical and does not get disappointed. When i think one movie is not good, i don't want to see it again and it's not the cause with this gem. I will see it again. The Japanese girl is amazing too. I wished the movie could have at least 120 minutes, to get more fun. Do not skip this, the bugs are fun and pesky.

Neil Welch One has to start by saying that the monsters in this monster movie are a spider, a scorpion and a beetle (with a praying mantis playing second fiddle) which are, without any doubt, among the least convincing CGI creations ever digitally transferred to celluloid. Add to this a plot which came straight from the first module in the monster movie training manual (crossbred with the plot of a girls' sorority dorm movie), and we're off to a bad start.But somehow this not very good film - and let's be honest, it really isn't very good - manages to transcend its disadvantaged beginnings (and middle. And end). It never takes itself seriously for an instant, which helps, the cast of unknowns give it their all and acquit themselves reasonably well, and the whole thing is done with a palpable sense of fun.One of the most enjoyable bad movies I've watched for ages - scored 1 for quality, 9 for entertainment value, giving an average of 5.

redhead9898 'Insecticidal' is a great cheesy film.College student Cami is obsessed with here bug collection of Rhinoceros Beetles, Sluggs, Scopions, Tarantulas, praying mantis, princer bugs, and more. Her bugs get on here sorority sisters, Sophi, Fumi, Cherri, Belli, Twisti, Jenni, and most of all, the woman of the house, Josi. Josi's boyfriend Mitch holds Cami and her boyfriend Martin while Josi sprays insecticide on Cami's bugs, mutating them. After Cherri, Belli, Kyle, Dick, Twisti and the pizza boy disappear, Cami, Sophi, Jenni, Fumi, Mitch, (well, not exactly Mitch, Mitch is just alive) find out about the bugs and fight against them, while Josi, the mean girl, becomes a zombie.the cgi is bad, but acting and dialogue is good, action and violence, suspense, but the cgi is still pretty convincing, it is a good film, Sophi's performance after her girlfriend Jenni, (they are lesbians) is killed. Vicky Huang is good, the girl who plays Cami, the boy who does Mitch, also Martin and the gorgeous Rhonda Dent who plays Josi, along with Jenni, the others do okay but this is order from bet acting to worst acting: 1) Josi 2) Cami 3) Sophi 4) Fumi 5) Jenni 6)Matin 7) Mitch 8) Dick 9) Twisti 10) Belli 11) Cherri 12) Kyle 13) Sluggo (Zombie???) 14) security guard (??????????????????) This is a great film with good, good, good actors! Rent it or buy it!!! 10/10 stars.

Phillemos I see I've given this movie a higher rating than most. I freely admit this a bad, bad movie. Yet as horrible as this movie is, it's still entertaining to watch, which is why my overall rating pulls the film up. For starters, "Insecticidal" is like the female eye candy version of "Leeches!" In other words, it's a bad giant invertebrate movie except nearly all the characters are hot girls, as opposed to "Leeches!" where they're nearly all male models. Otherwise, the similarities are so striking, I was surprised to learn the two movies weren't done by the same director. Basically, girls live in a sorority house where one (Cami) has an affinity for bugs and is doing a thesis on them for class. The most popular girls in the sorority gets so enraged at bugs crawling around the house (one of them startles her while she's banging some guy) that she sprays insecticide all over Cami's room and kills the bugs. OR SO SHE THINKS!!!... In fact the insecticide somehow causes the bugs to mutate to prehistoric proportions, and they start killing off sorority sisters the night of a wild party. Anyway, this movie is clearly not going to win any awards. The creature effects may be the worst since the old 1950s B-movies. They look like they could have been done on a Commodore-64 home computer. At times the killer insects even look like cartoon characters. The whole premise (if you spray insecticide on your pests they will actually mutate into monsters) is just silly, although I give them credit for not dwelling on it. There's no interest-killing "15-minutes-of-scientific-explanation" scene that most other sci-fi movies feel obliged to feature to justify their existence. And for all the carnage, it's disappointing how effortlessly Cami & Co. kill the insects. Yet if you're willing to sit through a "so-bad-it's-good" movie, "Inseciticidal" does have some redeeming qualities. It's action-packed, almost two straight hours of kills with virtually no down time in the movie. It's interesting to note that, according to the opening scene and credits, this entire movie takes place in the span of about six hours. There's a lot of eye candy here; and to be honest, though they try to stereotype Cami in the glasses-wearing-girl/nerd role, she is the hottest of the bunch. And if you're paying attention, the writers are having some fun here. For example, if you look at the house from the outside, you notice the girls are members of the Beta Upsilon Gamma sorority (whose abbreviation would be "BUG"). Clearly "Insecticidal" will never be considered mentioned in the same sentence such classics as "Alien" or "The Thing," but it's a good take if you're in the mood for a mindless flick. I give it a 4.
