| Creative LoafingMatt BrunsonThe special effects surrounding the bee attacks are poor, and the climactic twist shouldn't fool anyone over the age of 12. |
| User ReviewSteve ZI really enjoyed this late 60's horror gem about some killer bees used as warfare to kill people. I've generally found that the older/classic horror movies are much better than many new fright flicks, and this one doesn't disappoint. |
| User ReviewPeter BMST3K Version: The dogs meat, have you seen it? |
| User ReviewPrivate UBoring as hell. But funny brits, and several Bond actors make for a decent 60s horror movie. Enjoy a young Ron Wood, in the band The Birds from the UK, making his big screen debut. |
| User ReviewAndy COnly ever seen the MST3K redub of this movie and that makes it hilarious I especially love the fair lady Hargrove AKA the cigarette hag |
| User ReviewUgly TCrap film but does feature UK Mod band 'The Birds'. The only reason to watch the film... |
| User ReviewAndreas ODated and predictable, but quite entertaining.The front projection bees are great. |
| User ReviewMark Bmeant to be seen in 3D.. which i would love to see it in that format on the big screen ..possibly it would of been a better experience .. good but its no "the swarm" |
| User ReviewEvan HDon't let your neighbor borrow your book about bees. |
| User ReviewDennis MBees go crazy & sting their victims to death when they are dowsed w/ a special pheromone created by an evil keeper that has his hives in the living room (well if you are going to unleash killer bees on to an unsuspecting world for shits & giggles you have to hide them some where..I watched the MSK3T version of this (from season 9 I think) & it didn't help much |
