THEM! (1954)
8/10
Atomic blasts in the Arizona desert enhanced some dangerous pests. Top-of-the-shelf Hollywood atomic-age sci-fi thriller with a virtual whose-who cast, right down to a Leonard Nimoy in a bit part. THEM! has attention to detail to take the story out a ways. The dialogue dances with inspirited performances. Nice cinematography, effects and pace. The only thing missing is a couple of change-of-pace scenes to develop the story's romantic partners. Makes me wonder if they're on the cutting room floor.
