Plot
While working in a greenhouse, a man receives an insect bite after touching an exotic plant. Immediately, he falls ill and is taken to an emergency room where the doctors diagnose him as suffering from an unknown bacteria, and a strange parasite which emerges from his mouth as a large slimy wormlike creature.
Sinekatalog’s take
An insect bite in a greenhouse unleashes a slimy parasite inside a hospital. It is creature-feature B-horror with practical gore and a ludicrous premise, more silly than scary. Perfect for midnight-movie fans who like their monsters rubbery.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
