Your ant misses you. Call her already.
Ah, but which one am I referring to you may ask? The one who made you that delish coffee cake or the one who crawls along merrily inside your glass encased farm. No matter, since calling your Aunt Trudy by an insect name wouldn’t be a great idea in anyone’s book.
Creature features from classic sci-fi Hollywood remain a fun and fond era for movie lovers of all stripes. All sorts of beasties became the creepy crawly stars, and one of the very best of the big bug bunch was released in 1954. Them! is still a real kick ass thrill ride.
With practical special fx which still delight, Them! is a little sci-fi horror movie which acts as a sort of perfect template for bugs run a muck because of science - most particularly radiation experiments or a vintage nuclear bomb test.
Standout ants go wild movies include:
Them!
Empire of The Ants
It Came From The Desert
Giant Mutant Ants - Sci-Fi's Little Big Creatures
