In the upper echelon of goofy 70s made-for-TV horror flicks sits this creepy crawly classic about some very pissed off ants who have had enough of being sprayed with insecticide and decide to fight back. Effective and memorable for the time it was made and it has a surprisingly high body count. Suzanne Somers, right before she went on to star in THREE'S COMPANY, is one of the featured cast who must have had quite the crappy acting experience getting covered in bugs and Myrna Loy carries on the great 70s tradition of classic Hollywood starlets of the 30s and 40s showing up as an old lady in a spooky flick.
This same year saw the release of Bert I. Gordon's giant ant masterpiece EMPIRE OF THE ANTS truly making 1977 the year of the ant!
Originally broadcast under the way less exploitative title of IT HAPPENED AT LAKEWOOD MANOR.
