THEM! (1954) ¢ ¢ ¢
D: Gordon Douglas
James Whitmore, Edmund Gwenn,
Joan Weldon, James Arness
During the 1950s, a whole series of monster movies came out of Hollywood, in which radiation from the atom bomb caused various kinds of creatures to mutate and grow real big. In the case of "Them!", it's ants. James Arness, who played the monster himself in "The Thing From Another World", plays a gung-ho FBI agent in this one, and he sure looks like he's having fun machine-gunning those ants. If the ants were smart, they'd just stay away from James Arness.
