The Nest
A small town is suddenly attacked by killer roaches. Blah blah blah. You know the scenerio by now. You can only watch so many of these before you start pulling your hair out. But to be fair, this one came before most killer roach movies, and paved the way for the rip-offs. It had a fair amount of gore, and the acting and characters were tolerable. 3 out of 5.
Characters:
- Richard: Cop who has to deal with the giant roach problem
- Elizabeth: The mayor's daughter who has been away for a while comes back just in time to be chases by giant man-eating insects.
- Elias: Mayor who is trying to keep the whole incident on the low down. Roach fodder.
- Homer: Oddball exterminator who rides around on a moped. The idiot blows up his own house, but lives.
- Lillian: Richards current girlfriend who he kinda ditches.
- Church: Chef at the local diner who crawls into a dumpster and... well, you can guess.
- Jake: Crazy homeless dude. And well all know they are good for two things; being drunk, and getting killed early on in a horror movie. Munched.
The Totals:
- Body Count: 10
- Weapons Used: A cane, a blender, grease, a cake, coffee, and a fire extinguisher.
- Breast Shots: 0
- Thunderstorms: 0
- Explosions: 3
- You're running from roaches. Why are you locking the door?
- Roaches sound just like cats.
- The man with the moped saves the day.
