Humans in a fascist, militaristic future wage war with giant alien bugs.
Featuring animation from the mastermind Phil Tippett, this once looked-over sci-fi has amassed a cult following over the last 20 years.
In the distant future, the Earth is at war with a race of giant alien insects. Little is known about the Bugs except that they are intent on the eradication of all human life. But there was a time before the war... A Mobile Infantry travels to distant alien planets to take the war to the Bugs. They are a ruthless enemy with only one mission: Survival of their species no matter what the cost...
"Delivers so completely on the action front, with incredible bug effects that still put many of today's blockbusters to shame." - The Guardian
"The sci-fi film’s self-aware satire went unrecognized by critics when it came out 16 years ago. Now, some are finally getting the joke...it rightfully has come to be appreciated by some as an unsung masterpiece." - The Atlantic
