Line 2: * [[Completely Different Title]] - In Sweden, the film was infamously misstranslated as "Spindlarna" ("The Spiders"). * [[Executive Meddling]] - Was going to be in color and 3D before the studio got cold feet. This could be argued to have been a good thing, as the planned color of the ants (green) could have been [[Nightmare Retardant]]. * [[Follow the Leader]] - This film owes a bit to ''[[The Beast ~~From~~from ~~Twenty Thousand~~20,000 Fathoms]]'' and ''[[Godzilla]]'', and was, itself, the inspiration for countless subsequent movies about big bugs, none of which were anywhere near as good as the three aforementioned films, and most of which wound up on ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''. * [[Hey, ~~Its~~It's That Guy!]] - one reason this is one of the best giant monster movies from the 1950s. That's James Whitmore as state policeman Peterson. There's [[Miracle Onon ~~Thirty Fourth~~34th Street\|Santa Claus]] as the not-so-mad scientist with the answers. And [[Gunsmoke\|Marshall Matt Dillon]] leading the FBI against the ants. With [[Star Trek\|Spock]] making a cameo appearance as a radio operator on an ant-infested ship. ** And perhaps most famously, [[Davy Crockett]] himself is locked in the nut house following a run in with the ants. {{worksubpagefooter}} ~~{{reflist}}~~ ~~[[Category:Them]]~~ ~~[[Category:Trivia]]~~
