In both movies people seem to be the prefer snacks.

Empire of the Ants:
A must for your Joan Collins collection
Yes, this movie is a "B" or less. The problem comes in taste or preference. I would have given this movie a "five star" rating; however no one would ever take my reviews serious again...
The Photography is poor. This is a candidate for MST3000. I can not quite say that it is Joan Collins "Biography - Joan Collins" ASIN: B000006QJR at her best. And you know how some movies are so bad that it is good? Well this is not one of those movies.
On the other hand there is a lot of stay in the car scenes and action in running away from ants. You can guess who the bad Guy(s) are. But then you have to figure out why and what their angle is. It leaves you with the feeling that all ants eat sugar and slow people. But only the queen ant eats beans and doesn't use gas-x.
Watch at your own risk.

Tentacles:
Hey buddy watches those Tentacoli
There is no wrath like an octopus scorned. Take a lot of actors past their prime, add an octopus past its prime, toss in some bathing beauties worth eating, and a few brats on small sailboats for desert and you have a movie.
You already know the story of the ruthless developer that does not mind a little sea food (for Mr. Tentacles) if it does not get in the way of the project. Self conscious “do-goober” that thinks eating people is not nice and a buddy going down for revenge.
This leave us with the question does the innocent cephalopod get dispatched or does he live for a sequel?
