Review – Locusts: The 8th Plague

Here we have one of these wonderful scripts in which almost every plot twist, every character motivation, is almost completely implausible. My personal favorite was the part where the killer, carnivorous locusts pass up the hero and the love interest because they eat only organic food. Heck, this trend starts with the title itself. The whole flesh-eating bugs thing is ostensibly a reference to a passage from the Book of Revelation, but of course the “8th plague” thing would be an Exodus … wait a minute. Am I really arguing theology with a stupid bug movie from the Sci Fi Channel? All that really needs to be said here is that if you want a stupid bug movie then you’re in the right place.
