Review:
“It’s much better than Cocaine Shark and Cocaine Cougar but not quite on a level with Attack of the Meth Gator and the film that started it all, Cocaine Bear […] If you like microbudget and DIY films you’ll have a good time with Cocaine Roach. It’s short enough that the idea doesn’t wear itself out, has some decent effects and most importantly of all, it doesn’t take itself overly seriously.” ★★★ Voices from the Balcony
