Synopsis

"It seems the start of a glorious summer as Alan Alton and his family settle into their new home in the Shropshire hills of England. Then the insects start to appear. First there's one … then hundreds … thousands … millions. A smothering tide of destruction covers the land. Locusts. As the heat-wave continues mercilessly week after week, the horde of invaders grows--a hideous, red-eyed devastation spreading across town and country. Biting, stripping, devouring … and killing. Before this onslaught, the human population turns to flight. As panic grows, the death-toll also rises and the whole country is plunged into chaos. Britain is being eaten alive. Can nothing stop the locusts?"
