Review – Mansquito

Yep, this is really just as bad as it sounds like it would be. If it ever had a chance to not suck – and that’s a big “if” – that opportunity is swiftly squandered on a script so terrible that Ed Wood himself could have written it. Quick sample: “He’s more mosquito than man now.” The “he” in this equation is an escaped convict who gets bitten by radioactive, chemically-mutated mosquitoes, which of course makes him mutate into, well, a mansquito. Sadly for our hero cop protagonist, a similar fate befalls his scientist girlfriend, though her slower rate of transformation prevents her from becoming a full-blown chicksquito before the dramatic bug-zapper conclusion to the tale. At least they managed to avoid a few obvious bug jokes, so no warding off the monster using giant cans of Off or swatting him with a giant swatter. See if desperate
