3 out of 5 stars Goofy Creature Fun.......2004-10-30

I'm pretty sure the creators of "Tail Sting" were well aware they were making a turkey. I mean, who could have written this script with a straight face? And those obviously fake scorpion puppets? Just the icing on the cake!
Aside from the God awful credit sequence that had me feeling carsick, "Tail Sting" is a lot of fun. Just as long as you go into it with the right attitude. Don't expect a tense high tech thriller, in other words.

5 out of 5 stars Great Stuff, Great Fun.......2004-10-18

When a crate of genetically-created scorpions are transported from an Australian research center to an American pharmaceutical company, the insects are accidentally exposed to unrefined air and their thyroids respond by creating fast-working growth chromosomes.

Soon, the scorpions have grown into dangerous mutant arachnids. Crippling the aircraft, they attack the crew and passengers and knock out the communications system while the Queen scorpion forces the flight crew from the cockpit. As the airplane cruises blindly in autopilot over the icy Atlantic, the control tower loses contact with them altogether...

As time runs out, land is still far away. Don't be so quick to fasten your seatbelt!

A fascinating, intriguing story.

TAIL STING is without a doubt the worst movie I've ever viewed. Even though it had me laughing several times, it is still an abominable excuse for film-making. The actors (?) are all bad---Christian Scott as the James Brolin clone and Laura Putney as the heroes are hilariously awful. Putney pops her eyes a lot, and tilts her head in a supposedly sexy manner; her outfit when she becomes the Sigourney Weaver of awful movies, has got to be seen to be believed. The plane must be huge to allow such a large queen scorpion ramble around. The fight scenes look kindergartenish (although a good fight by a couple of 3 year olds could outclass these!). The special effects are laughably horrid; the computer geeks are unbelievably bad...the director loves zeroing in on their flying fingers, although you can tell they're not really typing anything; the camera never even pans to show you what they're finding. The plane lands in LAX, and there's not another plane or soul around...anyone who's been to LAX knows this could never happen.
I'm a creature feature fan, but this one isn't even worth viewing for a laugh. Awful, awful waste of celluloid and time. No redeeming qualities at all!!!!
And what's worse is it looks like many of the actors voices were dubbed!!!!!
AVOID AT ALL COSTS.
