''Vermines'' (''Vermin'') is a 2023 French {{horror}} thriller film directed by Sébastien Vaniček.

A young man named Kaleb lives in a building in a low income housing suburb of UsefulNotes/{{Paris}}. He's having a conflict with both his best friend and sister, and he's fond of exotic animals. One day, he acquires a small venomous spider, which soon escapes the box Kaleb put it in and reproduces in abnormally massive numbers. The building is soon invaded, and the district is soon put on lockdown. Unable to escape, Kaleb and his close ones will have to fight for survival, especially as the spiders start abnormally growing in size.
----
!!''Vermines'' provides examples of the following tropes:

* BigCreepyCrawlies: The spiders grow abnormally big over time.
* CobwebJungle: Entire corridors of the building are filled with cobwebs over time.
* KillItWithFire: At one point, someone throws a MolotovCocktail in a corridor full of spiders to try stopping them.
* ShoutOut: The poster emulates the box art of the video game ''VideoGame/TheEvilWithin''.
* SpiderSwarm: The spiders reproduce in large enough numbers to become a swarm.
* SpidersAreScary: A particularly venomous and invasive species of spider that's brought to France. They reproduce in massive numbers, their venom kills rapidly, and they grow abnormally big over time.
* SWATTeam: A squad from an elite [[UsefulNotes/LesCopsSportif French police]] force (either RAID or GIGN) is seen in the trailer.
* {{Tagline}}: "N'y allez pas seul" (French for "Don't go there alone").
