They Nest (2000)

Director: Ellory Elkayem

Starring: Thomas Calabro, Dean Stockwell, John Savage

A Maine island becomes infested with lethal insects that root inside their victims, while a local doctor battles the bugs and incorrigible locals that don’t believe him.

As creepy as the poster is, the film unfortunately was not. Most of the characters are idiots for no apparent reason. Their attitude and actions are not normal behavior and therefore not believable at all. They were annoying to the point where it became cringe worthy.

As for the script, it really is bad, with bad dialogue. I’m not even sure the actors tried hard enough. ‘They Nest’ wasn’t scary or suspenseful. Instead, it was rather bad, so I viewed it as a non-funny comedy.

Would I watch it again? No.
