Review of Mansquito

Mansquito (2005 TV Movie)
4/10
Mansquito-----The Fly mixed with a werewolf?
17 August 2005
Warning: Spoilers
I swear the DVD I rented has this movie named as Mosquito Man, but that doesn't matter.

To start out I'll have to say this movie was better than I expected. Most of the acting was above average and the film quality was good. The special effects, mainly on the actual "mansquito" were weak, but the blood and guts were good.

The plot was your typical mutation monster plot like werewolves and the fly. It offers a new twist with having the guy who mutates be a convicted killer, and also has an interesting plot with the Doctor slowly mutating and struggling to stay human. A decent plot if you like mutation/horror films.

But the Mansquito was far too powerful. He had this impenetrable armor for some reason, and his blade-like arm was razor sharp. He devoured an entire SWAT team within seconds and survived a giant explosion. I didn't think he should have been so invincible, but it didn't hurt the film too much. There is also the horrible anti-climatic line "Hey Mansquito!" and then a gun shot followed by explosion.

Overall it was a good film if you like horror movies that are more funny than scary.
