Just another creature-like horror film with similar plots to Tarantulas and Terror Out of the Sky, both I watched last week. This one is watchable but the threat of ants wasn't very convincing or scary. I did like seeing Brian Dennehy in an early role as the police chief and at least the acting was passable. **2.75/5**
