Marabunta roja: hormigas asesinas

A lot of familiar faces show up in this made for television film about a colony of ants who get mighty upset with humankind around Myrna Loy's resort hotel where there's some construction going on under the stewardship of foreman Robert Foxworth. This films teaches us that when Ants get disturbed they can really cause havoc.

I remember back in good old Fort Polk almost 50 years ago I put my hand on a nest of Ants and got some bites for my trouble. With what Foxworth and Lynda Day George go through in the end I hope their paychecks cleared before filming that last rescue scene.

You have to be an insect lover or a stargazer to appreciate this film. What was Myrna Loy thinking? I guess she saw a lot of her contemporaries go the horror and science fiction route. But this is definitely no Whatever Happened To Baby Jane. Louis B. Mayer never gave her a film like this.
