The Age of Insects was Eric Marciano's first feature film. Influenced by B-movies and bad television shows from the '50s and '60s, this psycho-horror comedy delivers a sublime and strange account of a mad doctor's hallucinagenic treatments for bad boys.

Filmed in Super 8, 16mm, 35mm, Hi8, 3/4" and Betacam, all before it was fashionable; The Age of Insects has a timeless visual quality, as well as an eternal bizareness.

"Coupled with the extensive use of creepy-crawly insect footage and computerized sexual imagery, director Marciano's darkly comic vision is sublime fun."
-- David E. Williams, Film Threat, April 1992

"This movie is the Citizen Kane of underground films--
intelligent, funny, engrossing."
-- Joe Bob Briggs, January 24, 1994
