So what do you think? Seems like geeky kid saves hot girl from an invasion of insects to me. Groovy. I liked the first poster (right) more but we’ll roll with it. Here’s the synopsis:
Our hero, Cooper, awakes to find himself nauseous, weak and covered in webbing, hanging from the ceiling of an office where, just minutes ago, he started his new job. As he struggles out of his slimy prison he comes face to face with his opponent – a grotesque, powerful and very angry bug. All 3 ft of it.
And so begins a hideous, nail-biting, comedic, all-action adventure to find a safe haven while constantly outwitting an infestation of monstrous proportions. As Cooper embarks on his journey, he befriends a ragtag group of survivors including Sara, a feisty attractive female. Although the situation is dire, Cooper can’t help himself from trying to solve his dating problem while trying to save his life.
Will they make it to safety before they are picked off one by one? And what other surprises are in store for our group of unlikely heroes?
That comes from the flick’s official website. Sounds good to me. Reminds me a bit of DANCE OF THE DEAD, which I absolutely loved. Seems like they just switched out the zombies for giant bugs. Now I’m not a fan of the insect world, so this is one scenerio I don’t want to see myself in.
Kyle Rankin wrote and directed this bad boy with the gorgeous Brooke Nevin starring along with Chris Marquette, Ray Wise, Linda Park, Jim Cody Williams, and Mike Straub. INFESTATION is pegged for a 2009 release date. Don’t want to wait? The official site actually has a draft of the script available for download! So head right over here to check that out. Before you check that out though, scope out the new poster below and let us know what you think! Keep it here for any more INFESTATION updates as we hear them.
