Phase IV
Thu 14 Nov 16:30
On a scientific expedition in the Arizona desert, a biologist, E.D. Hubbs and his cynical assistant, mathematician James Lesko, discover a town that has been deserted after an attack by an army of highly evolved ants. When the ants react with hostility to their research station, faced with an enemy that they struggle to comprehend, Hubbs becomes increasingly obsessed with carrying out their mission whilst Lesko starts to fear for their safety and the prospects of humanity against such a force.
A genuinely eerie and discomforting film, Phase IV is so much more than ‘killer ants’. Laden with a sense of doom, here humanity’s arrogance in the face of nature is truly its own undoing.
