Trivia provided by The Internet Movie Database:

—-

• The eerie insect noise heard when Zoc and the other ants first enter Lucas’ house (to shrink and kidnap him) is the same eerie insect noise heard in “Them!” (1954), when the giant ants are shown on screen.

• The kid who answers the phone at the Pizza Kingdom says, “Hail to the King.” Bruce Campbell, who voices Fugax, was the star of the Evil Dead movies, in which Hail to the King was a prominent quote and the title of the video games that were based on the movies.

• Final film appearance of Ricardo Montalban.
