The Satan Bug (1965)

In the secretive shadows of Station 3, a government lab veiled in mystery, Lee Barrett once held the helm as a top security officer. His rebellious spirit, however, led to his dismissal for insubordination. But when the unimaginable happens, and deadly biological agents are pilfered from the high-security facility, General Williams is left with no choice but to summon Barrett back to the frontline. The heart of their fear is the Satan Bug, a terrifying, newly engineered bacteriological weapon with the potential to extinguish all of mankind in mere weeks. This chilling strain, named for its apocalyptic capabilities, is rumored to have been stolen in the wake of a catastrophic lab accident that claimed the lives of several scientists. The plot thickens as the thief, hiding behind the cloak of anonymity, threatens to unleash the Satan Bug upon the public. As the clock relentlessly ticks away, Barrett is plunged into a race against time, where every second could mean the difference between survival and the end of all life as we know it. Will he be able to thwart the thief's ominous plans and prevent the release of the Satan Bug, or will humanity be erased at the hands of this deadly creation? The fate of the world hangs in the balance in this electrifying tale of intrigue, suspense, and the lethal dance between man and nature's darkest inventions.
