Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 2/4 --
The fright is crafted well enough, but the twist at the end calls for more originality than filmmakers David Moreau and Xavier Palud wield.

Chicago Sun-Times
First-time directors David Moreau and Xavier Palud have crafted a highly effective horror film that combines a plausible narrative with accomplished use of sound and image.

Rating: 2.5/4 --
A nerve-wracking finale, a 30-minute chase through the house's catacombs, followed by a closing image that will chill you to the bone.

Rating: 1.5/4.0 --
You can always expect a little embellishment for any horror film or thriller that claims to be based on a true story or actual events. This one, however, doesn't sell it.

Rating: 3/4 --
Those who like their horror served up neat, no chaser, can safely belly up to Them. It is a pared-down French thriller that trades splatter and gore for tense efficiency.

Product Description:
Atomic radiation once again manages to transform tiny harmless creatures into gigantic holy terrors. Probably the best of the '50s phenomenon, this top-notch thriller witnesses an invasion of giant ants using the sewer systems of Los Angeles like a vast ant farm. Academy Award Nominations: Best Special Effects.
Plot Synopsis:
Nine years after the atomic blast at Alamogordo, New Mexico, giant, mutant ants terrorize a small town in the southwest desert of the United States. Two doctors from the department of Agriculture are summoned to find the nest and destroy them... if they can.
