KaiJune (4) | THEM!

For this episode of KaiJune, we wanted to cover something a little different and outside of the usual definition of a kaiju film. So we're tackling one of the staples of the Nuclear '50s with Them!, about giant killer ants in the New Mexico desert. Here we discuss the effects, the immediacy of the film's plotting, the colorful cast of the film, the Red Scare elements throughout, and a lot more! We're also drinking Ommegang's OMG Series Frozen World Double Cold IPA!
