Phase IV – 1974

This one is all down to execution. Genetically enhanced ants play havoc with two scientists’ experiment before moving to cruel mind games. The killer element here is the direction and macro photography by design legend Saul Bass: why, what, how? It doesn’t matter. What could have been silly or cheap is instead truly horrific and unique, and while we don’t say this often, we would love to see what a remake might look like, coming from someone with the right mix of talent and vision.
