Mimic (1997)

★★★1/2

3 years following the elimination of disease carrying cockroaches by a genetically modified breed of insect, a new breed of insect has risen up from New York’s depths. Growing to human size, concealing itself in a protective mask that resembles a human head and feeding on humans; this new insect has kidnapped a young boy, killed several people and is out to colonize the world. Now, Dr. Tyler and her husband must find away to stop the insect menace before it spreads… or has it already? Great atmosphere, gorgeous set pieces, wonderful slimy makeup and slasher instincts highlight this movie as being a great sci-fi horror. It definitely can get under you skin sometimes.
