Buzzin’ makes me feel good.
“The Bees” is a gloriously awful animal attack thriller marked by some truly incompetent filmmaking, a ridiculous script, and some hilariously insipid acting. The story involves the corporate smuggling of killer bees into America, which causes a massive swarm such as the country has never seen. The scientists desperately trying to solve the problem (John Saxon as the egghead hero, the ravishing Angel Tompkins as his love interest, John Carradine as her German accented father) realize that they’re going to have their hands full.

Led by director Alfredo Zacharias (“Demonoid”), the filmmakers here miss any horror in the premise by bungling almost every action scene. Most of the time, the only possible reaction to the goings-on is laughter. Granted, some of the humor *is* intentional – there is an occasional priceless line such as “That’s adding incest to injury.” When it comes to the insect cast, we have a practical cast of thousands, and regarding the human actors, Saxon gamely tries to look serious, and Carradine is as genial as he’s ever been. Mexican icon Claudio Brook appears early on as Tompkins’ husband. There’s even an appearance by the “President”! Highlights include a good ol’ boy hiring kids to procure bees for him so he can treat his rheumatism with bee stings. There’s a fair bit of violence and a couple of impressive vehicle crashes. Everything is capped off with a delightfully idiotic music score (composed by Richard Gillis) that completely works against any suspense that Zacharias and company might otherwise have created. The ending is priceless and right in tune with so many other ecologically themed thrillers of the 70s.

Warner Bros., the makers of “The Swarm”, went so far as to pay off New World, the American distributors of this flick, to delay their release so the two movies wouldn’t be in direct competition.

Five out of 10.

Thoroughly inept
“The Bees” could be used as a tool of punishment for those who thought “The Swarm” was bad; no matter how silly the 1978 all-star disaster marathon got, at least it displayed a level of professionalism, competence and coherency completely missing from this inept effort. Anonymous extras flail about while bees which look more like moths fill the screen. Instead of Michael Caine, Henry Fonda and Richard Windmark, you get John Saxon (he has a martial-arts fight with an Asian guy, not Bruce Lee though) and Angel Tompkins (at least she’s cute). The scariest thing about this movie, though, is John Carradine’s German (?) accent. * out of 4.
