Man, I thought those damned fire ants were bad enough (they shorted out my air conditioner once).

I think a movie from the 70's dealt with this.  The ants would make "suicide circuits" and short out the electrical systems of stuff.   Now its gonna bug me, no pun intended.

Was it Saul Bass' PHASE IV?

Or maybe BUG - which featured killer subterranean cockroaches.  These roaches could shoot fire out their hinies and spell out messages with their bodies like a marching band.

I copied this on the "what was that film" board and we settled on Phase IV.  Thanks!

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
