“This was the night of the CRAWLING TERROR!”

When a power line falls to the ground on a rainy Georgia night, millions of carnivorous worms emerge from the ground to terrorise a small town.

“One of the most original and entertaining of the revenge-of-nature films that characterised mid-1970s American horror.”

Directed by Jeff Lieberman, SQUIRM was a commercial success but somewhat trashed by the critics. It has since re-emerged from the dirt as a genuine classic of the revenge-of-nature cycle and a curiously indie-inflected movie in its own right. This is our second feature with early career makeup by Rick Baker, here creating the character charmingly known as ‘Wormface’.

• Directed by Jeff Lieberman
• Starring Don Scardino, Patricia Pearcy & R.A. Dow
