Our story opens w/ two guys in Ecuador trying to get a cargo-plane full of coffee back to the states.

They end up smuggling 3 men out of the country in exchange for cash to pay off the Ecuadorian military. What the pair doesn't know is that they've also taken on a host of other tiny, deadly stow-aways! This leads to death and destruction ... Read More

Maybe not ALL ways--it WAS only 97 minutes long.
I usually like creature vs. humans movies...I even liked "Kingdom of the Spiders"...but this one was just plain stupid. No one could willingly suspend his/her disbelief to the extent necessary to find the story anything but eye-rollingly idiotic.
