    Fuck yeah, a long-bladed chainsaw is the only thing that really takes care of mosquitoes!

    A fun creature feature with excellent practical effects…

    That’s quite an allergic reaction!

    Reminds me of of old Finnish meme that probably is hard to get unless you are familiar with the concept of diminutive suffixes:

    The existence of hyttynen (mosquito) implies the existence of a larger, greater HYTTY

    (And the rest is creepy images of giant mosquitoes, you know, to cheer up people enjoying our brief summers)

      Haha! That’s actually clever and funny! :D

      You know, I never expected to learn anything about Finnish diminutive suffixes when I posted this movie, yet here we are! Kiitos paljon, friend! 🇫🇮

      I mean, it’s the perfect date night movie, as far as I am concerned!

      Looks like Clint Howard isn’t in this one though, so I’m skeptical that it’ll be able to reach the same level of greatness.

      I thought Mosquito starred Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, but that’s actually Ticks… ;)

    Ron Asheton from The Stooges is in this as well as Frostbiter: Wrath of the Wendigo which is way better than it has any business being.

        It’s loads of fun. An obvious Evil Dead 2 homage with tons of silly gore, cheap stop motion and two different songs about chili.

    Okay so there’s no way that their shirts would burn for any significant amount of time. It’s bad but it’s good. Thanks for the goody.

    Featuring the legendary Gunnar Hansen

    This came out just a bit too late to have been one of the B-horror movies my brother and I would subject ourselves to on a slow weekend, so I missed this one. I’ve got to see it!

      Ah, those lazy weekends filled with crappy B-movies and junk food: pure heaven! Definitely check this one out! :)

    I saw “Gary Jones” and for a second though “wait, Walter? ‘Chevron 7 Locked’ Gary Jones?”

    Lol no.

    But I’m definitely adding this to the B movie week I have planned.
