The story takes place amid the festivities honoring the birthday of crotchety, wheelchair-bound Southern patriarch Jason Crockett (Ray Milland), a chemical-industry magnate whose pesticides are responsible for much of the toxic pollution found in the swamplands. The revelry ends quickly, however, when

A very heavy handed lesson about pollution. As with any nature takes revenge movie, the lizards and spiders and snakes kill people.
