Mosquito Man aka Mansquito Review - Exploitation Retrospect

Mosquito Man starring Corin NemecI have a problem with MOSQUITO MAN. And I'm not talking about the DVD box description which gets the plot so wrong you wonder if anybody bothered to watch the movie.

No, I'm talking about the incompetent re-titling at work. When it premiered on Sci-Fi in March of 2005 it appeared under the much more appealing title of MANSQUITO, the kind of mashed-up horror/sci-fi name that I'm a complete sucker for. (See AQUANOIDS if you don't believe me.) For some reason, the flick was re-titled MOSQUITO MAN when it appeared on DVD, a change that I find somewhat peculiar. Were they trying to make people confuse it with CINDERELLA MAN? Did they hope to capture insect mutation completists who wouldn't bother to read the back cover and see that they'd already watched this on cable?

Whatever the reason for the re-titling that is my one, and only, problem with the borderline brilliant MANSQUITO. Directed by Tibor Takacs (80s horror afficianados will remember his THE GATE), MANSQUITO is a lightning-paced rip-off of THE FLY that dispenses with that flick's scientific mumbo-jumbo and yakety-yak first act.
