Plot

Giant insects in the New York subway.

Sinekatalog’s take

Guillermo del Toro's creature feature sends giant insects through New York's tunnels. It was marred by studio interference, but the monsters and gloomy design show his talent early.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
