Reasonable TV thriller starring the well-known Robert Foxworth (Falcon Crest), a real 70s actor, and a nice role for the 30s diva Myrna Loy.

Very unpleasant film with no tension, let alone horror. You can see the ending coming from miles away because it is a TV movie. The actors all perform their act like in soap series. You can't laugh with it either, so just bad.

Ants! Not to be confused with the also released in 1977 Empire of the Ants (Film, 1977). That film featured giant ants, here they retain their normal size. This film was certainly of a much lesser quality. Quite boring actually and the construction story was not interesting at all.

The ants are not much better. They are deadly, but it does not make much of an impression. Apparently they are immune to the toxic poison that ate them before, but they are deadly themselves when they bite people. It is all a bit far-fetched.

There's not much to tell, because hardly anything happens. I think there are better bug movies than this. Too bad.
