A Florida real estate developer and her captain lure investors to a property in the Everglades called Dreamland Shores, under false pretenses that the swampland will soon be developed. After the group arrives on a small island, they find it has been overrun by giant mutated ants, brought on by the dumping of toxic waste in the area.

Variety
Periodic moments of good special effects are separated by reels of dramatic banality as players flounder in flimsy dialog and under sluggish direction. - 42
Portland Oregonian
With his customary sensitivity, director Bert I. Gordon ripped off Them! as well as his own Amazing Colossal Man. Nutty as it all is, it takes a sudden lurch into deeper nuttiness at the end. [09 Aug 1996, p.37] - 40
Empire
Every bit as contrived as the leading lady's hairstyles, and rather less technically impressive, this is still trashy fun. - 20
The New York Times
The human's fright is seen as play acting, and the account of their progress over a gory trail is slow and repetitive. And, aside from some multifaceted ant's-eye views of humans, the special effects are artificial and unexciting. - 20
Time Out
It's all drastically boring. - 20
TV Guide Magazine
Laughable exploitation film results in a complete waste of time and talent.
