The flick centers on a massive earth tremor which opens a crevasse in the California desert, releasing a plague of bizarre, fiery, foot-long cockroaches. With their numbers multiplying and the death toll mounting, an obsessive entomologist desperately seeks a way to eliminate the seemingly indestructible critters before they spread clear across the country … and beyond!
Produced by legendary horror writer/producer/director William Castle (The Tingler, Rosemary’s Baby) from a screenplay he co-wrote with Thomas Page based on the 1973 novel The Hephaestus Plague by Page. It was the last film Castle was involved in before his death in 1977
Directed by Jeannot Szwarc (Jaws 2) it starred Bradford Dillman (Piranha, The Swarm), Joanna Miles (The Dark Secret Of Harvest Home) and Patty McCormack (The Bad Seed).
The living room and kitchen sets from The Brady Bunch were reused in this film. And although the living room set was rearranged slightly, aside from a paint job, the kitchen set was unaltered.
