Squirm
Directed by Jeff Lieberman
City slicker Mick makes his way to the swampy little town of Fly Creek, Ga., to see his girlfriend, Geri. After meeting up with her, Mick learns that the area has recently been ravaged by intense storms. More troubling is the appearance of large worms driven up through the soil by the downpours. But what Mick, Geri and the locals don't realize is that the electricity from downed power lines has caused the worms to go mad and develop a taste for human flesh.
A freak accident leads to wriggling horror when thousands of hungry, electrified worms lay siege to a Georgia community.
Cast: Don Scardino, Patricia Pearcy, R.A. Dow, Jean Sullivan

Blood worms they bites and have legs, this was great lol
Sad to see it go so soon, extremely entertaining and a personal favorite.
Why didn't anyone tell me to buy a pound of gummy worms for this one?
Great B horror movie. Reminds me of Arachnophobia but with worms. ending not as bleak though.
This movie came out the year I was born and my mother let me watch it somewhere between 8 or 9 years old and was the reason I was afraid to put a worm on a fishing hook, worms bite and screech!! Revisiting Squirm still gave me the creeps in 2020 and a craving for an egg cream. Gross little tale with fun characters, little sister is a burnout, the police officer is a hard head, mom is oblivious, and lets not forget about poor Roger. I love the old classics.
