Spoiler-Free Synopsis
Read MoreCollapse
Earthworms are an excellent source of low-fat protein. Just ask the eccentric, half-crippled nightcrawler farmer who heads this off-beat, low-budget horror film that is guaranteed to make some viewers squirm. He eats the slippery little critters all the time, and he's fiddle fit--but for the fact that he is slowly turning into a annelid himself as did the three fishermen who ate bass that had gorged themselves on the farmer's crops. The real trouble in the film begins when avaricious developers try to steal the breeder's land and put condos upon them. The breeder, when not sucking down scads of the little soil-eaters, contacts the fishermen, and they agree to help him, but only if he will create three wormy women for them (apparently no one has told them that earthworms are hermaphroditic and can breed with themselves).
