I remember watching it when i was a kid...so I'm gueeing it was made in the 80's or early 90's.

It revolves around several tenants who all live in an apartment building. Some time during the movie the building gets burned down, and little robot creatures befriend the people and rebuild their building.

I'm not kidding at all, I tried searching for it on imdb and I cannot remember the name of the movie or any of the actors in it. I do remember an eldery couple, and a bad guy who was hispanic, I think he was the one who burned the place down.

I'm just trying to remember what movie it was:shrug:

Sounds like Joe's Apartment, except the things are cockroaches.
