    Never seen the original, but I recall Stephen King devoting a passage to it in Danse Macabre. Should be interesting.

    Although I fear that this could mean he no longer scores movies he isn’t directing. I need another killer The Batman soundtrack.

    I vaguely remember watching the original on TV as a kid with my dad when it was on either TCM or SyFy (back when it was called Sci-Fi Channel). Giacchino plus giant ants means I'll be watching it for sure.

    Holy ****, that's awesome! THEM! is great. I loved it when I was a kid and I watched it recently and it holds up. Definitely near the top of the heap when it comes to 50's atomic monster movies.

    Yeah, check out THEM! If you haven’t. Lots of filmmakers were inspired. I mean, James Cameron with Aliens has a lot of influence.

    Not seen THEM! since I was a kid but after Werewolf By Night I can't help but be excited for this.

    Now this is a remake that will be fun as hell. Especially with Giacchino in the driver's seat.

    Neat. Giacchino did really well with Werewolf by Night. Looking forward to seeing his take on this.
