The Millennium Bug -- It’s December 31st, 1999, and the world anxiously awaits the year 2000. Hoping to escape the Y2K computer glitch known as the “millennium bug,” Byron Haskin takes his new wife and teenage daughter camping in the isolated Sierra Diablos mountains. But madness finds them in the form of the Crawford clan, a family of in-bred hillbillies who abduct the Haskins in order to refresh their stagnant gene pool. As the Haskins fight for their lives, death and bloody carnage ensue, but neither they nor the Crawfords are aware of the monstrous horror hibernating beneath the forest floor. Unseen for 1,000 years, this millennium bug is hungry... and December 31st just happens to be its birthday.

Gotta love the Crawfords, 17 November 2011
Author: poolbob3 from Midwest U.S.

Independent movies always rock, but this one was well done. Great camera angles, great sound, and great BUG. No CGI, couldn't have been pulled off better! I loved the over the top acting of the Crawfords.

I'm from the Midwest and we see families like this all the time, right? Makes for great entertainment and my favorite is Fij Crawford. The Bug was interesting in it's movement, very realistic, not sure how I know how a giant bug moves, but looked scary enough to me. Not sure what to make of the birth scene, but made good subject to talk about around the water cooler. What will an earlier version of the Bug look like? Prequel, sequel, bring it on, can't wait... Viva la Bug!
