...called the Zanti Misfits, had foot long ants with human-like faces and murderous tendencies. Unnervingly scary. With Bruce Dern. I know it's just a TV show, but it scares me just thinking about it.
She is now a huge horror movie fan just like her dad!
(Although that particular episode did scare her a bit.)
Those ants scared the livin' shit outta me as a kid, I had nightmares for weeks! I also remember "The Tingler", which was essentially a guy's hand that had been cut off. It would drag itself across the floor when chasing you. Really corny, but it scared me silly as a 10 year old.
Another one that really got to me was the "Earwig" episode of Night Gallery. The thought of having your brains eaten from the inside is horrifying to me. And you're absolutely right, monsters don't have to be big to be scary...

That "Tingler" description you refer to sounds similar to the "Terror in Teakwood" episode on the Boris Karloff "Thriller" series, wherein a jealous pianist steals his dead rival's hands (and fits them over his own hands - like gloves!) in order to play his rival's "unplayable" sonata. Unfortunately, the stolen hands have a mind of their own, and they too start crawling by themselves along the floor before inflicting their retribution! Another thing that I love about this episode is that it invokes and relishes all the clichés of classical music.
nightmares for me.
was way creepy. I remember those ants.
