Who needs ghosts and vampires this Halloween when you can have giant ants and killer zombies?! The Landmark Loew's Jersey Theatre celebrates the season of fright with two classic sci-fi / horror films, each of which helped to define their genre for their times.

Nuclear tests result in the appearance of huge mutant ants who menace cities in the American southwest as a team of scientists and the Army search for a way to stop them.
