Posted in Dead Air Podcast, Updates with tags , , , , , , , , on July 19, 2019 by splatterpictures

Today on Dead Air, terror will be delivered on six legs! We talk about the 1988 creature feature; The Nest!

The sleepy island town of North Port has a serious roach problem and while most citizens find them to be an annoying fact of life, this nuisance is about to become a nightmare!

INTEC has genetically altered these cockroaches in hopes of destroying the pests once and for all but instead, because of their meddling, has created a hungry swarm that thrives on meat!

Humans, pets and wildlife start vanishing and it’s up to the last survivors of the island to make it through the night while help arrives. However, a voracious appetite was only the beginning. The cockroaches are mutating further and becoming something else entirely. Something almost human.

Maybe it is more of our deep love for 80s horror and teenagers getting slaughtered! When Arnie met Christine it was like worlds colliding.

Then, she collided into every sad sack that did him wrong at school, and his boss, and his girlfriend, which stung because Christine was a giant shark of a car made of American Steel with a heart forged in Hell.
