Writer/director Ron Carlson's horror comedy creature feature DEAD ANT is a movie I have been fully on board for ever since it first came to my attention when Sean Astin joined the cast back in December of 2015. I've been wondering what's been going on with this movie, and now a trailer has been released online to assure me that it has been completed – and it looks even more entertaining than I had imagined it would be.

The story: 

When the "one-hit-wonder" glam-metal band "Sonic Grave" embark on a trip to coachella in hopes of a comeback, their peyote trip pit stop in Joshua Tree incites an "unworldly" viscous attack, and they must "rock" themselves out of harms way.

Astin's co-stars in the film include Jake Busey, Tom Arnold, Danny Woodburn, Michael Horse, Rhys Coiro, Leisha Hailey, and Cameron Richardson. 

The trailer has me convinced that DEAD ANT is going to be a really good time. Check it out below and see if it appeals to you as much as it does to me.

DEAD ANT will be making its premiere at Screamfest in Hollywood next month.
