One movie I really enjoyed was Mimic. It was not, by any account, the best science-fiction flick, but there were three main things that really tickled my fancy: 1) the overall darkness of the movie, 2) the autistic kid who could look at a shoe and instantly know its size and could imitate the bug clicking noise, and 3) the part where the two little street urchins get eaten. I mean, how many movies have you seen where the little kids get eaten, and don't survive just by pluck? I tell you, I can't think of any.

I didn't like that movie. I saw it on Sci Fi. It was one of those generic films made for the hell of it by some small-time studio. The acting sucked, and the creature effects were worse than the ones in Spider-Island.
