Overview
A disease carried by common cockroaches is killing Manhattan children. In an effort to stop the epidemic an entomologist, Susan Tyler, creates a mutant breed of insect that secretes a fluid to kill the roaches.

Viewing Notes
The first Guillermo Del Toro flick I watched. Sure, it’s not his best flick. But I really loved the idea when I first saw it.
Great to see it in HD on Netflix Instant. Hoping for a Blu Ray soon!
