Transcript

Of all history's profits, none has a greater degree of credibility than H.G. Wells, with his predictions of moon landing, ray guns, sonic signaling devices. Is Wells right again in his prediction of dangers to come in Empire of the Ants?

In this fantastic tale, Wells tells the chilling story of a colony of ants who feed on atomic waste, causing them to grow into large voracious monsters. Let's get out of here. Come on! These giant lands are actually able to control humans.

The Neasons! That's why it has to be this way. Why we must obey. At first, the people don't understand. They must be forced in submission. After their indoctrination, they realize that the ants only want us to take care of them of their land, work for them, even.

That's the way it should be, they are superior. Aah! I mean, they don't want us to go that way, and they don't want us to go back the way we came.

H.G. Wells, Empire of the Ants, or they shall inherit the Earth sooner than you think.
