Saul Bass, Ant Enthusiast

It makes perfect sense that the world reknown master of cinema titles, Saul Bass [saulbass.tv] should have made a film. It makes even more sense that said film is more visually stunning than especially well written or acted. What is surprising is the subject matter: Mutant Killer Ants. Two mad scientists locked in a bucky ball [wikipedia.org/fullerene] with a particularly useless token female character wage war against hyper intelligent ants. Cue amazing super close-ups of ants communicating with each other, spooky ant hill sculptures, kooky 70s computer technology and loads of lab equipment smashing in slo-mo. A mini masterclass in technique if not a mildly diverting b-movie [iMDB].
