I loved it

"Mosquito" is a perfect example of a movie that's so bad it's good. I can't in all honesty give it any higher than a 5 because of the "so bad" issues, but the "so good" parts prop it up. Low budget, dire acting, ridiculous script. But with the exception of the flying skeeters, the low budget special effects are actually not that bad. And in spite of the low budget, you get the feeling that everyone involved gave it the old college try and threw everything they could into it. As a result, I literally applauded at a couple of scenes for their over-the-topness, and laughed my butt off through most of the film.So yeah, as far as movie making goes, it was bad. But I enjoyed the dumb thing and was thoroughly entertained and movies are meant to entertain so in that, it succeeded. So, it's not so bad.

I found myself rooting for the mosquitos.

Mosquito (1994) is a movie that I recently watched on Prime. The storyline follows an alien vessel crashing on planet Earth that kills the aliens and an ooze seeps into a swamp. A few mosquitos absorb the ooze and consume the aliens turning them into unstoppable killing machines. Can anyone stop them?This movie is directed by Gary Jones (Spiders) and stars Gunnar Hansen (The Texas Chainsaw Massacre), Ron Asheton (Smokin' Aces), Steve Dixon (Legion of the Night), Tim Lovelace (High Crimes) and John Reneaud (Stardust).This is a classic bad 90s horror movie with terrible writing and dialogue and a weird soundtrack. The mosquitos and special effects for them aren't great but is far from the worst part of the movie. The mosquitos are huge and make you laugh. There's no real worthwhile character to root for so I found myself rooting for the mosquitos.Overall, this film has poor writing and no real redeeming aspects. I would score this movie a 4/10 and only recommend it if you're looking for a worthwhile bad movie.
