THEY NEST (TV Movie 2000) 4 out of 10 stars ⭐

BASIC PLOT: 

Strange roaches invade an island in Maine. A mainland doctor has to fight the bugs, the locals and his nerves.

WHAT WORKS: 

*LOW BUDGET, MADE-FOR-TV REMAKE This is basically just a TV movie redo of the movie The Nest (1987) The roaches are gross, and the skeezy feel of the island, makes you want to take a shower.

*AS AN "X-FILES", DRINKING GAME THIS MOVIE WORKS GREAT! Takes a drink when one of the actors that appeared on "X-Files", appears on screen.

Tom McBeath, John Savage, Mark Schooley, Travis MacDonald, Dean Wray, Walter Marsh, Jessica Schreier, Lloyd Berry, . Neil Mark, John Tierney, Judith Maxie, Laara Sadiq, Craig March and Rebecca Toolan all appeared on The X Files (1993)." In fact, Rebecca Toolan played 'Fox Mulder's mother, Teena Mulder.

WHAT DOESN'T WORK: 

*CHARACTERS AREN'T AS GOOD AS IN THE ORIGINAL The characters aren't as likable as in the movie The Nest (1987). There's also not as much comedy as in the original, which really doesn't work with this type of movie.

TO RECOMMEND, OR NOT TO RECOMMEND, THAT IS THE QUESTION: 

*I can't recommend this movie, even though the actors are top notch. I recommend you watch, The Nest (1987), instead.

CLOSING NOTES: 

*THIS IS A MADE-FOR-TV MOVIE, please keep that in mind before you watch\rate it. TV movies have a much lower budget, and so your expectations should be adjusted.

*I HAVE NO CONNECTION TO THE FILM, or production in ANY way. I am just an honest viewer, who wishes for more straight forward reviews. Hope I helped you out.
