This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

Yes, Skiffy strikes again with a movie made up of poor special effects and mediocre actors...The plot is that a shower of tiny meteorites pierce an astronaut's space suit, and infect him with insect DNA. A hot female entomologist is called in. (Because, honestly, only in a Skiffy movie can a female entomologist be considered "hot") and teams up with a NASA mission specialist nicknamed "Geranimo". (Seriously, this is what passes for writing on Skiffy!) Well, the insect burst out of the astronaut's body, and they look just like, oh, regular moths. Then the infect other people, who grow extra limbs and need to suck the life out of other people. Throw in the gung-ho national security guy, some other minor characters who probably slept with the producers, and what you get is two hours of mess that Skiffy will put on one of their weekend "bug" marathons....

Try to stay with this TV movie and you may drive yourself crazy. THRESHOLD stars Nicolas "X-Files" Lea as a scientist trying to stop an alien infestation from taking over the world. If he doesn't stop the moth-like aliens in 48 hours, the city he is rushing around in will be nuked to stop the plague from spreading. Lea is not believable as any kind of scientist, and the cast otherwise is unmemorable and generic. The only thing that saves this thing from being a "1" are some yucky scenes of alien transference that strongly resemble similar scenes in the much-beloved THE HIDDEN. The creatures have interesting claws, too, that pop out at regular intervals.

Spaceman gets infected with alien virus that kills him. Post-mortem, alien moths hatch from his body and fly into a suburban Houston neighborhood, where they make a pit stop onto the hand of a wussy husband during a cookout. This guy (Frank Hansen) gets enough grief from his bitchy wife Sheila and her sister (forgot her name), that being infected with the moth virus is probably a blessing in disguise. He turns into some sort of insectoid (though he maintains his human form except for some insect pincers that come out of his chest when it's convenient), kills his sister-in-law and, after about 45 minutes of panic in the streets of Houston, kills his wife too. Meanwhile, Nicholas Lea and Jamie Luner are an astronaut and entomologist, respectively, trying to figure out just what is the deal with the space moths. When they're not preparing for the end of the world, they are shamelessly acting like fifth-graders who pretend to hate each other even though it's painfully obvious they want to bang each other. Some X-Files, Homeland Defense-type guy named Quidd mysteriously appears halfway through the movie, lectures Lea and Luner about how badly they screwed everything up and sheds some insight into the situation. The movie does kind of leave you wanting more. The plot, even for a horror movie, is just a little too far-fetched. It starts off as a "insects-run-amok" movie and the plot just gets sillier and sillier as it goes along. As bad as this movie sounds, though, it has some sort of appeal on a very base level; I have to admit I watched the movie through the end. And Jamie Luner is still pretty hot. I give it a 4.

excellent concept with serviceable special effects. insects from outer space that use us for food and hosts for their offspring. watching it, i was left feeling that many opportunities for good gratuitous gore were left out. plus, it had the same "surprise" ending so many of these sci-fi movies have. nicholas lea was surprisingly good in a non-x-files-but-somewhat-x-files leading role.
