Bite Me! Trailers

When a new strain of marijuana is delivered to a remote strip club, an army of insect creatures hungry for human blood starts feeding on the staff and patrons. Soon the bugs cause provocative havoc as their bite elicits a particularly potent narcotic reaction in those bitten.

Reviews
BlazeLime Strong and Moving!
Griff Lees Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
Catherina If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Vomitron_G Every now and then I like watching silly crap. And this movie succeeds in being what it wants to be: Total silly nonsense. Add a little fun stop-motion effects (mutant sex-drive-increasing ticks crawling around everywhere and a human-sized mutant tick-man at the end) and quite a lot of nekkid boobies (provided by Misty Mundae, amongst others), and you could say this one is somewhat of a fun watch. But the acting often is so abominable that it hurts. In the end, all that remains is a movie that isn't going anywhere, but you can have a fun time just staying at the main location of this movie (being a titty-bar infested by the aforementioned critters). Near the end the movie gives more than one nod to older giant monster classics (and this doesn't exactly mean that there is a big climax with a giant monster reeking havoc or anything - just see it and you'll understand).
unbrokenmetal 'Bite Me!' was great fun watching, I enjoyed every minute if it! Every character is achieving the opposite of what he/she intends to, that is the formula of the comedy effect. The manager of the club tries to organize everything, but gets mad over the whole chaos instead. Buzz the Exterminator loves insects too much to hurt them. The dancers are too tired to dance. And the lady who wants to ruin the manager becomes an attraction of his club instead. Well, for a short time at least. Only the bugs are good at what they are doing: bite! Even if the side-effects are remarkable...While everyone else would have used a guy in a suit to play the bug monster guy, Brett Piper used stop-animation for that, too, which is an amazing piece of work. Coincidentally, I made some stop-animation student films in the 1980s myself on 8mm film and know how much time, patience and care a few seconds of such a scene take, which is why hardly anyone still uses that technique anymore. Fortunately, exploitation flicks sometimes have a lot more to offer than just the female anatomy bits and buckets of blood. Not that I'm about to complain about either of these two, though... It's bug for the buck.
dmbucher I just watched this is movie in one setting. That is quite frankly unbelievable. When you see a video cover such as this one, you pick it up wondering if this might actually be entertaining. Unfortunately, this movie was just so poorly written, I don't know how any sane person could understand it. The most "what just happened!?" part is when one of the dancers suddenly puts on camoflauge gear and starts wielding a gun. You don't even get to see the destructive spider scenes until about the very last 10 minutes. Are the first 70-some minutes considered an exciting build up?? I just don't understand how movies like this get decent budgets to create!!
ghoulieguru You get what you deserve if you rent this movie. I mean, if the title and the box art don't tell you that this is movie is horrible, then you need to recalibrate your crap meter. The only redeeming thing about this movie is that it seems to revel in its own manure like a pig, and it doesn't take itself very seriously. This movie is so bad, it's almost good. If they had cut the budget a little more and made the bugs out of paper mache, they could have called this the "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes" for the new millennium. It's pathetic films like this that keep horror in the ghetto. Just like school in the summertime... no class. Fans of Troma films will be in hog heaven, but everyone else should steer clear.
