"The Nest" (1988) takes an intriguing and somewhat unsettling approach to the horror genre by incorporating real cockroaches into its scenes. Directed by Terence H. Winkless, this film masterfully blurs the line between practical effects and genuine arthropod dread, resulting in a uniquely memorable cinematic experience. One of the most distinctive features of "The Nest" is its decision to employ actual cockroaches in certain scenes. In an era when computer-generated imagery (CGI) was not readily available, the filmmakers opted for a more hands-on and authentic approach. They introduced these real, unsettling creatures into the narrative, turning them into nightmarish harbingers of terror. The practical effects in "The Nest" extend beyond the use of real cockroaches. The film also showcases a host of grotesque and terrifying creatures that were meticulously crafted by the special effects team. These creatures, which share the screen with their real-life counterparts, contribute to the film's ability to create an atmosphere of visceral horror. The integration of practical effects and live insects allows the audience to feel an uncomfortable closeness to the horrors unfolding on screen. "The Nest" wisely capitalizes on the inherent fear of cockroaches and multiplies it exponentially. Set in the seemingly tranquil island town of North Port, the film unleashes a nightmare scenario involving an invasive species of genetically modified cockroaches. This ecological horror element taps into our fears of nature's retaliation against human interference. It adds layers of depth to the narrative, transforming it into more than just a creature feature and instead an exploration of ecological anxieties. While "The Nest" undoubtedly falls into the creature feature category, it does not neglect character development. The film introduces a cast of well-rounded and relatable characters who are thrust into the unimaginable. Their struggles, interpersonal dynamics, and desperate attempts to survive contribute emotional weight to the story, elevating it beyond mere monster mayhem. "The Nest" is a hidden gem in the horror genre that daringly integrates real cockroaches and practical effects to deliver spine-tingling terror. By combining these elements with ecological horror themes and well-developed characters, it offers a unique and suspenseful viewing experience. If you're a fan of creature features that push the boundaries of practical effects and venture into the disturbing realm of real insects, "The Nest" is a cinematic journey worth embarking upon.

This week we discuss Venom, bad action sequels to good horror films, the enigma of Terence H. Winkless, and the surprising 1958 cult classic I Married a Monster from Outer Space.
This movie came out of left field. None of us had ever seen it before, but we are WELL ACQUAINTED with Don “The Dragon” Wilson. So, somehow all EIGHT of these movies fell just outside our radar. You know what? We were missing an amazing movie! First things first, this movie has the **most controversial** mango in the history of mangoes. What kind of magician can peel a mango like that? And do it while running? Plus its poisoned! Between mangoes and the least flexible woman to dance on a rooftop, no matter what Jake says, we at least get a lot of montages of running up a volcano. We have a lot of fun with this movie and it has us intrigued to watch the second. Three through 8? Maybe not. Movie Info Premiered: Sept. 22, 1989 Directed by: Terence H.
