Still, there is a plot in this. You only need to make the legs long enough, add a small town with assorted weirdoes in the outback, perhaps a sprinkling of aboriginals with mystical powers, and you have your movie.

You heard it here first

Now just image that for some reason lots of electricity would be pumped into the ground. This would drive the worms mad and... wait, that has been done already.

They do look disgusting, though
