Gotta be "that guy" and say that the haters just don't "get it". This is a cheesy, fun homage to 80's teen and mutant animal horror movies. Cliched dialogue, a rockin' soundtrack, obligatory montages, typical teen-movie stereotype characters, and it doesn't take itself seriously. The acting is good, sometimes overdramatic and unrealistic, but it's meant to be! Glad to have stumbled upon this movie.!

Although this one is better than a lot of garbage coming from mainstream Hollywood producers, it shouldn't be rated against those big budget products. Meant to be fun entertainment - cheesy lines, gory, reference to the old classics (Them!), intentional over the top acting. Only an idiot can't see that this flick doesn't take itself seriously. Definitely worth a view.

A this time, I'm only five minutes in to a cheap B-movie, and the desert monsters are much more believable than Donald Trump's hairpiece. A couple of minutes later, a fat 'Edge' - or in this case, the Edge-Radicator - shoots up a Class of Nuke 'em high type zombie, with a teenage geek lusting over him. It's ay-ok so far.... .... A trip into the desert with some chums, a party, a film crew, and the Edge-Radicator? What a handsome time? Twenty minutes in, this party has gotten a little deflated, much like a shopper cushion has been sat on by a massive fattie... ... It's just been two floppy faired whiney brothers, and a token hottie so far... ... Lots of the brothers saying "dude", but nowhere near Bill And Ted worthy... ... Plus a "rad"? Who says 'rad' unless they're in a 90's episode of Neighbours? Then a man gets knees in the balls and ends up sounding like a cross between Warwick Davis and a Teletubby... ... A lot of use of words like 'nancy' and 'gaylord' ( don't watch if you're a snowflake, you'll have an aneurism, a stroke, a heart attack, and a desire to write your anger)... .... Oh, it gets better, now the guys are 'chicks', it's SO EIGHTIES... ... Then the nostalgic music begins, do too does the party... Sorry, the space ants weren't invited, but they're crashing this s**t. FXCK YOU, ITS A B-MOVIE, it's not the best, but it's not, by a million miles, the worst. If there's nothing on, and you come across this movie, it's worth watching with company, a beer, wine, cider, spirit, and joint. You'll love it!

I liked the feel of this movie. It's a fun lay back on the couch with a beer and friends film. I wish they would rate it or give a warning about the language in regards of children. Rated R

This may be one of the worst movies to be made available to the general public. It is the definition of cheesy, the plot has several holes, and the characters are completely undeveloped. This movie is everything the world needs right now. Doesn't require any brain power, doesn't take any thought. Just sit back and have a good time.

Firstly, I wanted to watch because of the huge ants, but well, it's just one more movie trash, kinda without great ideas, with poor visual effects, and terrible actors, but at lest, it's funny to watch, and you totally will laugh with some moments, the problem it's just the story that is not creative.

New take on "Them!" and the ants actually looked great for the money spent, but the teens were stupid. I think it's the writing and the casting. Double-whammy. I don't think directing could have helped. Or maybe direction drove the nail. Honestly, something went wrong here, long before the pickup went over the cliff.

This was really entertaining and we were pleasantly surprised. Some cheesy special effects, but all around good fun. Reminded me of 8 Legged Freaks
