State of New Mexico. The recent atomic bomb tests may seem innocent but leave a huge danger behind them ; regular ants affected by radioactivity start to show a weird mutation which allows them to grow massively in size. Out for what they can get, they soon start to pose a threat to humans. Who's gonna stop them?
Highly prolific director Gordon Douglas comes out with another classic 50's sci-fi craziness. It's all there. Giant ants claim their right in the desert while on a killing spree. Who does that anymore? Besides the entertainment, this kind of films also show the era's anxieties and worries about the environmental change and use of nuclear energy. And this movie tells it exactly! Don't fuck with nature or she will come down hard on you!
Nothing too shockingly good in acting here (what did you expect from an American film? ) but a more stable quality in overall plot. From the worried scientist to the fearless men fighting the huge ants, everyone acts like they are supposed to. Doing their job in favor of the American dream. So politically correct! Americans,please don't get offended!
Must watch this : with a bottle of Coca Cola or Pepsi (you need to feel as American as you can), in your pajamas, on a cold Sunday afternoon.
