Worms attacking Southerners. Worms piling out of a toilet. Worms devouring human flesh. If you can say one thing about "Squirm", it's this: It's got worms. Lots of worms.
I'm not what you'd call a "Worm Movie Fan". I'm not saying that I won't watch a worm movie if it's there, I just wouldn't actively seek one out, is all. And as far as worm movies go, I'm sure you could do a lot worse than "Squirm". I mean, it's got lots of scenes with worms crawling all over things, like tree stumps and corpses and entire living rooms, and that's great, if you're into that kind of thing. I guess I don't NOT like that kind of thing. I've never really given my preference for worm movies, as opposed to non-worm movies, any thought.
One thing I liked about the worms in "Squirm" was that they were very likable. The filmmakers achieved this effect by surrounding the worms with whiny, hateful human characters that were really annoying, and then having the worms kill them. The worms were very playful- in one scene they hide in a guy's egg cream. In another, a brave worm bites a guy trying to use it as fish bait. I never even knew that worms had teeth! This movie was entertaining AND informative!
In fact, it was great! I think I like worm movies! In fact, I think that every single movie from now on should feature worms! Big worms, little worms, flesh eating mutant worms- bring 'em on! I LOVE WORMS!
