Synopsis

Police lieutenant detective Thomas 'Thom' Randall's steady girl-friend, Dr. Jennifer 'Jen' Allen, is Dr. Aaron Michaels's main assistant on his pharmaceutical firm Bellion's research program to cure the highly contagious, fatal infection Guinin. A convicted murderer, whom Thom arrested, is one of their special drug test subjects, but escapes. The convict and Jen are affected by radioactively altered DNA from an experimental reactor used on mosquitoes which transfer quinine. The convict soon mutates into a mosquito-like monster, which sucks its victims dry. By the time Thom and his junior murder brigade partner Charlie Morrison figure out what happens, Jen starts mutating herself.

Woodyanders A convicted killer gets exposed to an experimental serum that causes him to mutate into a lethal and predatory humanoid mosquito mutant that goes on a bloodthirsty rampage. Director Tibor Takacs keeps the entertainingly inane story moving along at a brisk place, stages the attack scenes with flair, delivers a few nice bits of gore, and, best of all, treats the gloriously ludicrous premise with jaw-dropping seriousness. Corin Nemec plays the rugged detective hero with admirable sincerity. The foxy Musetta Vander likewise does well as the infected Dr. Jennifer Allen. While the cheap and chintzy (not so) special CGI effects leave something to be desired, the funky guy-in-a-rubber-suit monster possess a certain gnarly old school practical appeal. Kudos are also in order for Emil Topuzov's slick cinematography and the rousing score by Joseph Conlan and Sophie Morizet. A fun little Grade B beast bash.
flashgerling This is an awful film. There is very little that is at all appealing for this movie, but if you are willing to take a film and create a drinking game to it, this has fantastic possibilities. The most interesting part is that the back of the DVD suggests that there is a completely different plot than the film in fact creates. Not even close. There is some crazy killing and highly humorous activity that ends in a highly disappointing way. The only real complaint for a person that is ready for unintentional humor is how we are mislead. This movie is worth watching, but for only the rare few that are willing to take a punch to the mouth and accept the craziness. Watch it with absurd expectations.
gsh999 Some decent special effects and acting make this a pretty good movie. I have been absolutely disgusted with 90% of the SciFi channel movies, like most sci fi fans on this board. Mansquito is the first one I have been able to watch for a long time. Not great, but entertaining, and with a title like Mansquito, a nice surprise. I actually tuned in to see how bad it was. Let's just say Mansquito benefits from diminished expectations.I don't like sci fi movies in which you don't see the monster until the end. Mansquito shows the monster a lot and it is pretty ugly. The female lead gets pretty nasty too as she is in the first stages of becoming Womansquito. There are some pretty gory and violent combat scenes between police and the monster. Overall pretty satisfying.I hope SciFi keeps improving because their movies have been terrible. Mansquito is a worthy effort. 5/10 If you're like me, you have a basic
siderite I am a horror fan. That means I like to be scared and I also enjoy horror flicks that bring me to laugh (like really bad ones) or that make a reasonable effort while failing. This one doesn't even try.I stopped looking at it after the man transformed into a giant mosquito. In a minute or so, what was a man transformed into a fleshy insect, something that seems to haunt the nightmares of every person that dreamed of seeing a decent movie. Meanwhile there is a girl that begs the transforming man to stop transforming. After he obviously doesn't, she begins to beg the fleshy insect that used to be a man not to hurt her. It works just as well as the first attempt.If I'd had more time I would have seen the whole movie and probably really be upset by it. I mean, they took every possible animal or plant and made a movie about it attacking humans, humans transforming into it, then attacking humans, etc. But mosquitoes?! They are really deadly, I agree, but not when people transform into them! No, this is a really bad movie. Stay away from it.And I apologize for bringing The Fly into this. After all, at its time it was close to original in both idea and effects. Not the mention Jeff Goldblum that made the movie a good one.
