I watched this 'bum-kickin' film with my friend one day in the UK while we were eating lunch and flipping through channels. To our surprise, we found the name of this movie, 'Bug-Buster' with RANDY QUAID! You know, the guy who was 'mad' at Clark...immediately, we went to the Sci-fi channel (we saw the name on the Guide) and what do you know? We start laughing and singing the Ghostbusters theme while we eat and laugh AT this pitiful film...let me begin by saying: well, this is obviously a low-budget spoof on good films by David Cronenberg (one of Hollywood's most authentic and genius visionaries) Ed Wood, and Roger Corman (the others don't need an introduction...) Basically the film, well, I question the PG-13 rating first of all... (Moans and sighs) Basically the film is about some drunk and ignorant teens that discover these tiny low-budget bugs and their queen. Here's a spoiler: THE Sheriff Is Working for the Bug!! No kidding, actually. You really have to see this film to believe it.

I am sure this film is one of those 'cheap' DVDs that we have here in grocery stores for £4.99. I bought it for a pound, but I think that was too steep.As one reviewer said "No-one has to make a film this bad." And as someone else said, "What were they thinking of?"This film does belong to 'so bad it's good' genre, but it wasn't good enough to persuade me to stay up for the denouement. A typical bizarre scene is where the Sheriff rescues a young men who has fallen in the deadly lake. The young man is in trouble but he is clearly going for the Gold Medal for bad acting. I think the actor should attend Stanislavasky's current drama school in the Gulag somewhere.So, the young man is being attacked by something we can't see - it later turns out to be a medium-sized silt-sifter with a red vertical stripe painted down its middle. So, we can't see this vicious fish that's mauling the young man; but with very great reluctance the Sheriff, an old warrior from Star Trek, takes aim at the mildly disturbed surface and fires. Apparently his vision and aim are top notch because he kills that red-striped fish with just the one bullet. End of scene.Another amusing aspect is the man who has retired from something in the rat race and invested ALL his income in some lakeside roadhouse and hotel. His wife and daughter didn't think this investment and move to the sticks was such a good idea. But when a strangely-bearded musician is killed by large stick-on bugs at the hotel, he resolves to sell out for 25c in the dollar.25c in the dollar! I just had to worry about a father who makes that kind of investment.The whole thing is ludicrous. The script is weird. It's not apparent but hardly two consecutive lines make much sense.I was impressed by the first swimming girl because she seemed to have Buffy-style patter and reminded me a little of cross between Faith and Charisma Carpenter. It's a shame that she turns out to be the community's loose woman and has to develop all those great bug-induced squishy lumps.It's a funny film if you're in the right company, but I can't honestly encourage to BUY this film at any price.

Well, what can I say? What is wrong with you guys! Its pretty obvious you have missed the entire point of this film: to entertain! So the effects aren't great and the cast isn't A-list but who cares when you have old man Judediah bumbling round the town wide eyed and slack jawed ranting and peering through Katherine Heigl's window while she showers! And they say he is mad!Randy Quaid has been in a few duff films but this is by far his best to date! Watch the General George adverts to see what I mean. Its obvious that a country that finds Benny Hill funny would miss the point of a film like this. Just remember one thing, we only sent him to you because we got tired of his abuse of short bald old men.Who cares if the guy used to be in the Love Boat? Who cares about ex Star Trek cast members? So they were in ST, they aren't now so get over it. George Takei did very well considering all his scenes featured no other humans (including the opening scene!)A true classic of the B movie genre. You guys stick to your What Women Want and your Runaway Brides. I'm going to turn on, tune in and Kick Bug Ass.Its ok, the General said so.At ease.Peace, Out.If you enjoyed this film, may I recommend Leprechaun too?!

I started watching this movie recently (note the word 'started'), basically because my fiancee doesn't like cockroaches at all, and so likes to watch movies with cockroaches in. It's the same with plane crash movies, so I've seen some really bad movies in my time.I very quickly reached the conclusion that this is, literally, the worst film I have ever seen. I'm not exaggerating here. If someone were to ask me now, "What's the worst film you've ever seen?" I would reply "Bug Buster." "There is no way," I thought after half an hour or so, "that any film could possibly get any worse than this." And then Randy Quaid showed up.I thought Randy Quaid was bad in Independence Day, but then he was alongside Jeff Goldblum and Will Smith. Here, he was surrounded by truly bad acting and he still managed to make the movie worse just by showing up. Bear in mind, I'd already reached the conclusion that this movie was the worst I'd ever seen before he actually showed up. He was that bad. Unwatchably bad in fact, we gave up shortly after that. I flicked back over every so often just to check it hadn't somehow gotten even worse, and the bits I saw made me glad I'd stopped watching it.I gave it 1/10, but this film is a good argument for having a zero in the scale.
