A CHEESY CREATURE FEATURE - By: stuart, 01 Nov 2007 
Weather problems force an airline to change one of it's airplanes along a new route, causing general dissent among the passengers. On board is Dr. Jennifer Ryan, (Laura Putney) a doctor, is traveling as well, & doesn't realize that her experiments will come to an end after the plane lands. As the passengers & crew of the plane start disappearing, Pilot Jack Russell, (Robert Merrill) becomes concerned & starts to look for them. When he finds that giant scorpions are the culprits & are running around on his airplane, he rounds up what few survivors remain & try to fight their way out.
The Good News: This one wasn't as bad as it could've been. The creatures are, for once, not done with CGI & it makes the film seem more real than the other types with similar story lines. That helps much in giving the scorpions much more credibility. The creatures are also designed like true B-movie creations, taking the traditional look of the regular scorpion & making them quite appropriate for the kind of film. The action flies pretty fast & furious pace, keeping it up beat & pretty interesting. The plane setting is mostly used to it's greatest selling point, & the suspense is utilized quite effectively. The sequences where the claws clicking is heard off-screen are great examples. A big body count is also quite appreciated, making for some nice death scenes. The film also has one of the cheesiest overalll atmospheres. There reallly isn't any unintentional laughs or anything present, but it's just a giant cheesy ride.
The Bad News: The cheesy atmosphere may put off some, & as it's so prevalent through the film, & for those that don't like those kinds of films, it's quite a hard film to sit through. The film also doesn't have many shocks or scares at alll, making it even harder to sit through if you can't stomach these kinds of films. Those are pretty much the main thrust of the complaints, as it's easy to figure out what a cheesy, shock-less horror films is like. Even though it is refreshing to see the scorpions not be composed of CGI, they're not alll that realistic. Points are given for not going the normal way, but then they're quite easily discovered to be fake.
The Final Verdict: As it's a pretty cheesy affair, you know what you're going to get right away. It reallly doesn't offer anything new, but it's worth a look for those that like this kind of film. If you're not a fan of this kind, then steer clear.
WHAT WILL THEY THINK OF NEXT!!!!!!! SNAKES? - By: L. Wilson, 29 Jul 2007 
This is realy BAD in fact its worse than snakes on a plane & that is without doubt a very very very bad film. To say its "good because its bad" is worse than the film, if anything could be.
One of the worst films ever - By: Mark Wright, 22 Mar 2004 This has to be one of the worst films I have ever seen, but I quite liked it as its 'so bad its good'.
Considering they had a budget of 10p to make the film they have done a good job, especiallly liked the jump suit they made to kill the scorpions , using travel irons as weapons! Also liked the fact they couldn't even afford any extras to fill up the plane! Special effects were dreadful too.
one to watch after you come back from the pub!
