Worms, worms, worms, and sewage goo, that's about it. Little worms and big worms, and one giant worm. Picture this: the suburbs, earthquake, sewage goop, thousands of flesh eating worms. They'll eat your mom, your dog, your baby, your husband, your sister, your grandma, you. Watch pretty much everyone die in technicolor detail.

Three stars for humor and 1/2 for making people look as stupid as they really are. ( )

A solid 4 star creature feature that embraces all the nastiness of B movies, while retaining the humor that makes these stories fun in the first place.

Fun! Gory, hilarious, nasty, oozing, fun.

This is a perfect read when you're in the mood to be entertained or need to be distracted from the harsh horrors of reality. It was exactly what I wanted at exactly the right time. Highly recommended to fans of creature features! ( )

In Worm by Tim Curran the Midwest town of Camberly has been invaded from below. A rancid, horrible black muck of sewage is oozing and spewing forth from the ground and taking over the neighborhood. It's even coming through the plumbing in homes. Unknown to the locals, at first, the slimy sulfurous, rotting muck is occupied by more than what you'd expect to find in a colossal sewage plant back-up.

This is like Tremors but with smaller sewer guys doing the invasion - and little is all relative when you are confronting carnivorous, hideous, malodorous worms coming through your pipes or up the front steps.

Don't expect a lot of character development or nuanced writing. This is all about the carnage and action. Wonderful, disgusting, horrific B-grade movie material - sometimes it's what you need: highly recommended
