Les Insectes de feu

Les Insectes de feu, en voilà un sacré problème ! Un thème bien étrange pourtant prometteur et digne d’intérêt qui est noyé par un rythme narratif lamentablement lent. Cent minutes, pour une telle série B, c’est beaucoup trop, surtout quand les choses ne démarrent vraiment que dans les cinq dernières minutes ! Oubliez les gigantesques scarabées de feu, car vous n’en verrez pas. Le dernier film de l’œuvre du légendaire William Castle aurait pu être nettement meilleur, mais les spectateurs atteints d'entomophobie, eux, en ont pour leur argent ! (06/02/2019)

I’m truly shocked that the creators attempted to develop a premise about cockroaches that come from deep down in the earth after an earthquake and live out of ash and the fires they cause themselves (!!!) not as a funny B-movie, but as serious sci-fi horror. And I’m even more shocked that to a certain extent they pulled it off. It’s full of crazy silliness, but in the second half especially, they manage to play some unsettling tones as we follow a biologist who’s gone a little mad after the loss of his lover and has decided to play with the bugs and mutate them. A film so bizarre that it’s worth a watch. (14/01/2015)

Bug is a film that came as a big surprise to me. I didn't expect much from a film with this title, so I was even more surprised that it's a functional film. The shots of cockroaches are disturbing, and coupled with the well-executed and quality editing, you feel like they're truly dangerous and capable of causing everything presented here. Bug is a film that definitely shouldn't be overlooked. (25/02/2017)
