stinger starts 3 months ago on the submarine the ss newark where genetic experiments have gone awry and the crew member are brutally slaughtered by large killer scorpions. jump to camp pendleton a couple of months later where general ashford (james cagnard) brief lieutenant williams (john miranda) on his mission to board the newark and assist genetic scientist dr. carly ryan (michelle meadows) and before anyone knows it a group of corporate scientists and marines are on board the newark and are shocked to discover he mutilated corpses of the crew apart from dr. mike thompson (casey clark) who doesn not make much sense. it not long before the scorpions attack and first to fall is lt. williams so sergeant sam harmon (christopher persson) is promoted and takes the responsibility to get everyone to safety and end the menace of the giant scorpions forever. this sweedish america co production was directed by martin munthe and he also handled the cinematography and i thought this was a strictly by the numbers uninspiring creature feature. it early into the new year and stinger is the first giant genetically mutated monster or creature or insect type film i have seen in 2007 and hopefully things can only get better. the script by mat nastos is incredibly clichéd and gets all of it ideas from other films most notably aliens (1986) and lets see there the isolated location in this case being a submarine and there the hastily assembled team of marines including one who chews on a cigar throughout the entire film and there the scientists including a blonde sweedish one to try and explain it all and the evil money grabbing corporate villain who puts the mighty dollar above human life and the final ingredient being the monster or alien or insect or whatever and in this case there loads of large scorpions running around but theyre not utilised in any sort of unique or imaginative way so they might as well have been killer grasshoppers. yeah and it all here and unfortunately stinger isn not an aliens if you get what i mean. it a touch long at over 100 minutes and it throughly predictable although it moves along at a reasonable pace and as a dumb creature feature you could do worse despite what many say on the imdb. director munthe doesn not distinguish himself and it not scary and there a lack of atmosphere and the action scenes are dull and unexciting. there not many scorpion attacks and it almost an hour before any significant action occurs and the special effects are at the bottom end of the scale but i have seen worse that for sure. i mean that not to say the effects in stinger are good but i have seen worse. there isn not much blood or gore and there some mutilated bodies and some decapitated heads and someone is ripped in half. the only clever and amusing moment in the entire film is when the naked sweedish female scientist ask her lover to turn her on by talking about all the money their going to make from the scorpions. however there was a moment which had me groaning and tearing my hair out in it stupidity as a bloke tries to repair the submarine circuitry and get the lights working by hitting the power supply or computer boards with a hammer and it works as well. technically stinger is average at best and there the usual endless amount of dark corridors which gets monotonous. stinger was shot in stockholm in sweeden if your interested. the acting was poor and there nothing else to say. stinger isn not a great film and it isn not a great horror film either and i can not recommend it at all but i have seen worse. if you liked stinger (unlikely) you might like the similarly themed giant scorpions on the loose films tail sting (2001) or scorpius gigantus (2006) (just as unlikely).
