      Interesting info...They actually only used two-yup-two huge ants to make that film...One was a complete mockup, full size, but was not mobile. The other, mobile ant, the one that got James Whitmore, was actually just the head of a huge ant, mounted on a camouflaged forklift!..Amazing how they managed to edit the action to make it seem like many more ants were moving around...Of course, when they burned out that nest, those smaller ants were puppets.

      It's always difficult to separate Hollywood legends from reality, but there is one story that Walt Disney was first considering James Arness to play Davy Crookett. Walt watched "Them!" to see Arness, but was so impressed with Fess Parker's brief appearance that he became the front runner for the role. At any rate, it all worked out in the end as Arness got to play Matt Dillon on "Gunsmoke" for about 20 years.

    I remember living in Brownsville, Texas in 1951 when I was about 4 years old. We lived in a small white clapboard house next to a large open field. That's where I first saw THEM too. I told my father so he bought me a bright red atomic water pistol for Christmas that could shoot clear across the living room. He said "Keep it loaded so you can protect your mother, sister and baby brother if they get too close and aim for their antenna". Then he decided to move to Corpus Christi to keep us safe or start a carpentry construction firm with his brothers. I forget which. Never saw THEM again until this movie came out but their nest looked a lot like LA.

    Back then these actors (before they got on hit TV shows) we contract players so a lot of them would do the circuit on movies and TV. It is different now, you can be a character actor and make a living, getting gigs on different sitcoms for a couple of shows here or there, but back then you needed to wait tables and pick up construction jobs, I believe Nimoy did everything to keep a roof over his head. Even on sitcoms back in the 60s if you were a main character you did not make a lot of money, I think Nimoy made 36k a year as Spock, not a wealthy man's salary but he bought a small home (36k in the 60s was not bad money). They had a lot of insecurity when the show ended as they all needed to work, Had the original Star track aired 15 years later they would be set for life with those contracts and residuals.

    This is a terrible copy. Did you record this off a tv screen with your phone?? Unwatchable.

    I saw this film years and years ago and it was shite then and still is.

    The first half of the film is actually very good but later the suspense subsided a bit and was not helped by the poor special effects.

      I thought the special effects were good!...and the effects people made do with just two "ants"...one was a stationary mock-up, the other was the head of an ant, mounted on a forklift!...Somehow, through good editing, we thought we saw more full-size ants.
