Good creature effects, shame about the rest of the movie
4 October 2020
The makers of 'millennium bug' must have realised the dilemma they faced before they started shooting but carried on regardless. That dilemma is how do you make a feature length movie when you are really good at creating monster effects but lousy at everything else.The answer is quite simple : rip off (very badly) characters and ideas from successful genre flicks , in this case the sawyer family from the Texas chainsaw massacre, story tropes from the backwards horror subgenre and then copy and paste them to the template of any bog standard monster movie Also bathe every scene in retina damaging lighting to detract from the ultra fake looking sets. lastly cast the most hammy and hysterical amateur thespians to delivery your dreary and cliched dialogue. One of the film companies involved in this movie is called no CGI films and yes 'millennium bug' can claim to some damn fine tangible creature effects work, on the flipside i wouldn't be surprised if no talent for script writing films, we're also involved. 3 for the effects, 1 for the rest of the film
