Summary:
A disease carried through the seweres by roaches threatens to destroy millions with a plague. It is stopped when a beautiful and ingenious scientist genetically alters an insect with an incredible capacity to first mimic then destroy the virulent insects. What they didn’t predict was that they did their job too well, and now the insect has mutated to mimic and destroy mankind.

Comments:
Derivative crap in its purest form.This movie gives a bad name to bad movies. If you can somehow get past the phoned in perfomances and the cut and paste repurposed Jurassic Park script, you might be able to enjoy the title sequence and possibly the fact that Sorvino is hot. You probably won't be able to though. It's just that bad.
