A disease carried by common cockroaches is killing Manhattan children. In an effort to stop the epidemic an entomologist, Susan Tyler, creates a mutant breed of insect that secretes a fluid to kill the roaches. This mutant breed was engineered to die after one generation, but three years later Susan finds out that the species has survived and evolved into a large, gruesome monster that can mimic human form.

Notes

My quick rating - 6,2/10. A step above the usual monster flick. This time with mutated cockroaches "mimicking" people. I enjoyed it then, and still holds up. Del Toro directing is also a major bonus. And after "Replacement Killers" Mira Sorvino can do no wrong.
