Did anyone see this horrible CBS disaster movie? I only saw part of it and want to find a place where I can get a copy (digital download, VHS, whatever) so my friends and I can MST3K it.
For those who missed it, it's about how two swarms of genetically altered locusts, one each on the east and west coasts, immune to pesticide, start ravaging the country and the gov't has to figure out how to stop them before they hit the midwest farmland. The DoD is going to try dropping VX nerve gas, killing 10% of the U.S. population along with the locusts, but instead some rogue scientists figure out how to electrocute the locusts. They get a large swarm attached to a grain silo (trying to get in) by using a generator to turn the silo into the world's biggest bug zapper.
