Back in the 1950s there were several Hollywood movies that featured giant insects. One of those movies (Them!) is a classic about ants mutating into giants after exposure to nuclear radiation. It was a box office hit!
Conventional wisdom says these movies played on peoples fear of nuclear bombs and the cold war. Maybe that’s true but I reckon something else was at play. Check out this video and see if you agree with me.
