It's decent. It is among many films from the mid/late 70's about Mother Nature going insane. It is about an invasion of foot long roaches that set fire to everything that they come into contact with. They are released upon a small town when it is struck by an earthquake. Fairly predictable & not very well acted, it is still entertaining. I think that anyone who buys this DVD knows exactly what they're getting. I collect horror DVD's. "Bug" is a is a welcome edition to my collection. It is a good movie, but not to be considered great by any means.
This fantastic film will literally get under your skin. Don't eat anything while you enjoy this creepy, eerie film with excellent performance by the late Bradly Dillman. William Castles last involvement in films. Super cool 70s sensation. A fun & freaky creep out for horror fans.

Story: A powerful earthquake releases a horde of mutant cockroaches with the unfortunate ability to start fires, wreaking havoc on a small California desert town and obsessing a science professor (Bradford Dillman) to the point of madness. This ecological disaster flick was legendary horror producer William Castle's (THE TINGLER, 13 GHOSTS, HOUSE ON HAUNTED HILL) final film. Comments: Flying Bugs Who Start Fires, Amazing!! A+++++++++++++++ A extreme cool movie!!! I loved it when that scientist was creating a new species, end of movie was truely spectacular, i had almost guessed it when they 1st appeared & all. Amazing. Reminded me alot of a episode of '' The Outer Limits '' . They probably ripped it from this movie. Definately recommendable, not to mutch blood & guts spilled and all, and not really realistic story & all, so recommended to most viewers.

I saw this at the movies when it came out. How could it not be a favourite, more so when I found out that it was William Castle's last effort? Brad Dillman's distracted, disturbed scientist is a treat and he plays a mean second fiddle to the incendiary cockroaches. It is a point of contention, however, that pressure increases as you go down, not up, and from my understanding of this presentation the roaches should have been at it like...well, rabbits. Physics notwithstanding, this is a nice effort and well worth a look: a deserving entry in the B Movie Hall of Fame.
