Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

Hi, Everyone,I was the keyboard player in the band "Trailer Park Trash" in the movie. Fortunately they misspelled my last name in the movie credits. No, just joking. It was a fun experience (making the movie was fun, watching it was a little excruciating).Johnny Legend and Melba Toast and I had performed lots of times at various Country Music spots in L.A. over the years of the 80s and 90s. We performed for the producer at some of his Christmas parties. He decided to use us for the scene in the lodge. It was very very hot when we did our scene. It was over 100 outside and hotter inside. The air conditioning had to be turned off while we were filming.It was nice to work with the cast and crew. The movie turned out pretty bad but still fun to watch if you have friends over on a Saturday night and you want to laugh at the screen. Maybe the perfect DVD to get for your mother-in-law or your wife's attorney.The bugs that attacked Johnny Legend during our musical numbers were very real. Not some special effect. There was a "bug wrangler" on the set. They are some kind of cockroach from South America or somewhere and they are as long as a grown man's index finger and as fat as a man's thumb.I would like to say something really good about the movie but I will have to come back if I can think of something.Tom Willett

Down-right dumb flick about a teenage girl (Katherine Heigl) who moves with her parents to a lakeside town that is about to be infested with killer mutant cockroaches. The cockroaches finally start to slowly take over the town with gruesome killings and it is up to the town to bring in silly exterminator Randy Quaid. Another low-budget horror flick that has a sick humor and characters less interesting than paint drying. Former television alums James Doohan (of "Star Trek" fame) and Bernie Koppell (of "The Love Boat") have prevalent roles. Heigl and actress Meredith Salenger are nice to look at, but they are sub-par performers and their beauty cannot compensate for this disgusting bomb. Turkey (0 stars out of 5).

What an incredible film. Incredible in the fact that the Cast & Crew have admitted they made it, and that it actually got released. Thankfully it did and a copy made it to a local news agent in east London and was then purchased by a friend of mine (5 DVD's for £10 or some other offer) The joy I had watching this was like scratching the soles of my feet, it tickles & irritates & annoy's yet at the same time it relieves them and i want to do it more..argh!!! The acting IS the worst i've ever seen (I watch a lot of rubbish movies) the script is just as bad & Randy Quaid deserves an Oscar for the worst performance by a 'trained' actor. I loved the use of Star Trek old timers, there performances just add to the badness of the whole production. This is a perfect example that the saying 'its so bad its good' isnt always true. Plan 9 fitted into this catogory yet this film seems too knowledgable of its own badness to pull it off. After saying all this bad stuff i must admit I havent laughed so much for years. I advise all people into film to watch this as an example of how bad films can be & how much we should appreciate it when a decently scripted,acted & directed film hits the silver screen......think i might watch it again after all this talk...i need a good laugh.....1/10 (although 10/10 for being such a freak of a film) P.S. Many thanks to my so called mate for lending me this pile of.....

I started watching this movie recently (note the word 'started'), basically because my fiancee doesn't like cockroaches at all, and so likes to watch movies with cockroaches in. It's the same with plane crash movies, so I've seen some really bad movies in my time.I very quickly reached the conclusion that this is, literally, the worst film I have ever seen. I'm not exaggerating here. If someone were to ask me now, "What's the worst film you've ever seen?" I would reply "Bug Buster." "There is no way," I thought after half an hour or so, "that any film could possibly get any worse than this." And then Randy Quaid showed up.I thought Randy Quaid was bad in Independence Day, but then he was alongside Jeff Goldblum and Will Smith. Here, he was surrounded by truly bad acting and he still managed to make the movie worse just by showing up. Bear in mind, I'd already reached the conclusion that this movie was the worst I'd ever seen before he actually showed up. He was that bad. Unwatchably bad in fact, we gave up shortly after that. I flicked back over every so often just to check it hadn't somehow gotten even worse, and the bits I saw made me glad I'd stopped watching it.I gave it 1/10, but this film is a good argument for having a zero in the scale.
