10 Batsh*t Crazy Horror Films For Halloween
8. Invasion Of The Bee Girls
When several top-level scientists die from “sexual exhaustion”, a government agent investigates and uncovers the truth: the perpetrators are a group of beautiful women who just happen to be human/insect hybrids. Stuck in their reproductive cycle, the hybrids continue mating until their partner expires.
The scientists’ widows are then abducted and transformed into Bee Girls by being stripped naked, smothered in beeswax and left in a transformation chamber, from which they emerge wearing black contact lenses.
Most of the female supporting players are strippers, Playmates and porn queens (including Colleen Brennan and Rene Bond), so you can probably imagine how the rest of the movie plays out.
You wouldn’t know it from the nudity-heavy trailer, but the script is by Nicholas Meyer (The Seven Per Cent Solution, Star Trek II), who isn’t considered a grindhouse aficionado. Tellingly, there’s a credit for a “Script Consultant” (“Rewrite Man”), so whenever characters discuss psychosomatic death, it’s Meyer, and whenever a breast pops out… you get the idea.
