Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??

Horrible, fascist and poorly acted

It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Actually very predictable ... to the point you want to smack the "characters" playing in this. But still played with such a gusto by it's lead actress, that you kinda fall for it. It's the typical "You can see what will go wrong, why can't the protagonist see it?" kind of thing, but again, if that will bug you, than you should better not watch it at all (or stop watching it, after 5 to 10 minutes, when it gets apparent, where this is heading).The main actress (also in the directors feature film, prior to this entry) is really good and as stated above, very contagious with her playing the role and getting that emotion clearly send to the viewer. While not exceptional, still pretty good and if you let yourself enjoy it, it will be rewarding.

This episode of the "Masters of Horror" series tries very hard to be both amusing and horrifying but doesn't quite manage to be either.The "humor" is very heavy-handed and Angela Bettis's character "Ida Teeter" is a caricature, not a human being. The plot line is promising (a strange, huge bug running loose that can devour mammals and impregnate (!) them) but ultimately goes nowhere. Bettis's co-star Erin Brown (aka Misty Mundae. a soft porn/horror scream queen) tries to make the most of her role as the ditsy, pixie-obsessed "Misty Falls", but leaves no major impression.The whole relationship between the two women seems unbelievably far-fetched. Ida is not particularly attractive, looks much older than Misty, and is very weird and socially-unskilled, and yet Misty has been fixated on her, as it turns out, for YEARS! Misty seems pretty strange herself, but even so her obsession with Ida seems ludicrous. And why does the perfectly normal-seeming Max give the insufferable Ida the time of day, much less be her best friend? The land lady character seems to exist only to be "the bad person who deserved to get killed" role you see in countless unimaginative horror films. And Max is the second "friend of the protagonist" character to get killed that I've seen in the Master of Horror series. Is this some kind of formula that stories in this series must adhere to? I've seen two segments so far and both of them featured the nice friend of the protagonist getting destroyed by a monster. In "Sick Girl", the death of Max was gratuitous and served no purpose at all, except to provide some gore.The ending were terrible, incredibly stupid even for a horror movie. Misty becomes this CREATURE, a "bug" of some kind, and the bug's mandibles (or whatever they have) have torn through her flesh (earlier Misty's ear became a bloody mush and fell off). She's no longer human. But at the end, she's perfectly normal and healthy looking and happily pregnant with the bug's offspring (as is Ida). HOW is it possible to go from having her flesh ripped apart from the inside to being whole again? Like I said, it's stupid even for a horror movie.I'm going to watch two other segments of this series tonight. God, I hope they're better than this!

This episode had me up until the ending where the bug impregnates the two girls and they are just fine with being shot up with insect splooge and the fact that the bug was sent by one of their fathers. So, apparently, if you are disappointed in your daughters lifestyle choice, it's OK to rape her via insect and get her pregnant with world dominating bugs. Right... The episode makes more sense when you find out that Ida Teeter was originally Ira Teeter and that Roger Corman was to direct. Then, it's just a father who doesn't like his son's choice of mate so he sends his curse of the conquering womb, which is still creepy, but much less offensive. Praise should be given to Erin Brown aka Misty Mundae aka Pale Rider, who shows more acting ability than she is given credit for. Her best scenes are early on when she is being wispy, or misty, in love and the amusing roomy scenes with Angela Bettis. The single greatest shot has to be when she is shown naked as one of the fairies that she likes to draw. As to Bettis, she is given a lot credit, but she is really annoying in this and her almost butch delivery of lines like, "slap my skin honey bee," is painful to hear. Worth a look if you like anyone involved, but not the pinnacle of Masters of Horror.

From what I've seen so far the "Masters of Horror" series has been pretty disappointing, but this episode was so retarded that it set new lows. This is some of the worst writing/acting/directing/"horror" I have ever seen in my life. I keep watching this series expecting there to be something redeeming, but I think that this has single handedly made me give up on it entirely.If you like horror, then you will hate this film.If you like cinema in general, then you will hate this film.If you like Peter Jackson films (or if you're just a frat boy who watches scary movies for the girl on girl action), then, by all means, watch and enjoy.
