About this movie

Jerry O'Connell (TV's "Sliders," "Stand By Me") is fresh off the bus from Iowa and just trying to make it in New York, but he's got no job, no girl and, worst of all, no place to live. But life's about to change when he finds a home. It's a slummy, squalid, seedy little box of a place, but it's a pad Joe can call his own...or so he thinks. It seems that not all of the apartment's former tenants have evacuated. His roommates -- 50,000 dancing, singing, talking cockroaches. This creepy, funny musical film is based on the award-winning MTV live-action/animated short. Co-starring Megan Ward ("Party of Five," "Encino Man"), Jim Turner ("The Ref," "The Lost Boys"), rap group Salt-n-Pepa's Sandra Denton and Robert Vaughn ("The Towering Inferno," "The Man From UNCLE").

I sat my friend down to show him a stupid movie that I loved. Turns out he loved it too. We sat and sang duet throughout the whole movie, while my girlfriend just stared and shook her head. LOVE It.

One of my all time favorites. Some are grossed out by the roaches or urinal cakes, not me, though. Certainly a talented foray into the roach universe with enough musical numbers to go on Broadway!
