I'm straight up marathoning anything that sounds horror adjacent right now, and half of them or n=more are not getting reviews, sorry. It's cuz most of them deserve only a few sentences...there's not a lot to say.
Also known as Insect! Hell yeah with an exclamation mark.
Insect! stars Steve Railsback as a detective, though that will barely come up, all we really need to know is he's the good guy. Dr. Steve is in this hospital concurrently as a old man is brought in who cut himself on the thorn of an unknown plant, and the man promptly dies. Soon enough a worm like insect crawls out of his mouth and is kept in a jar by the hospital, and other people are showing symptoms of the worm disease.
This is a Canadian low budget movie and you can tell before you look it up, cuz there's for sure some nice "aboot" Canadian accents in here. It's also very minimal, one setting, basic but cool and effective monster, and small cast of characters that work, have some decent chemistry, and even has a decent child actor. Also, fucking very cool poster:

This is not a great movie, nor is it even that good, but it is fun enough and it is what you expect. Real effects and a quick pacing help out a lot, and you could definitely find worse out there. I'll give it 2.5 stars.
