Mimic

Guillermo del Toro directs this 1990s sci-fi horror starring Mira Sorvino, Jeremy Northam and Josh Brolin. Three years after creating the Judas breed - a new species of insect - in order to wipe out plague-carrying cockroaches, Dr Susan Tyler (Sorvino) worries that the breed may have evolved. Along with her husband Peter (Northam) and their assistant Josh (Brolin), they travel the subways looking for Judas specimens.

Meanwhile, eight-year-old Chuy (Alexander Goodwin) disappears after investigating shadowy figures at the local chapel, and his grandfather Manny (Giancarlo Giannini) sets out to track him down. Both Manny and Susan make a terrible discovery - the Judas insects have developed the ability to take on human form, and are now set to destroy mankind.
