Dead Ant

Dead Ant is a 2017 American comedy horror film directed by Ron Carlson, starring Tom Arnold, Sean Astin, Rhys Coiro, Jake Busey, and Leisha Hailey.

The members of a heavy metal band have a chance to return to stardom when they are invited to Coachella.

However, they get stranded in the desert and find themselves fighting for their lives against giant ants.

[1] Frank Scheck of The Hollywood Reporter called the film "the sort of effort that wears its cult movie aspirations so heavily on its sleeve that it they should bring back drive-in theaters to show it.

"[2] Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times wrote that Carlson "does swiftly and skillfully move the story toward a surprisingly spectacular finish", while the cast "look like they’re all having a ball", and called the film "unapologetically “low art” … yet fun, in its own way.
