Yes, Jeff, "Them!" was more finely crafted than "Tarantula"; I believe
you are referring to James Arness in the second hand role, who had previously played the
role of "The Thing From Another World" in 1951; James Whitmore was
the leading protagonist in "Them!" and he did a good job. However,
I thought Edmund Gwenn as Dr. Medford was superb, and furthermore,
little Sandy Descher stole my heart as the shock-muted Ellison Girl with her
outstanding performance in the opening scenes of the film.
The eerie, tense atmosphere created in the desert in the opening part of
"Them!" is simply unsurpassable; I never fail to get the creeps
and actually fall into semi-trance. It's only when little Sandy
screams "them!" "them!" after being forced to sniff formic acid by
Dr. Medford, do I awaken and fully realize that something very dreadful has indeed happened! - AH
