Watch Invasion of the Bee Girls For Free

Really Surprised!

Overrated

Fun premise, good actors, bad writing. This film seemed to have potential at the beginning but it quickly devolves into a trite action film. Ultimately it's very boring.

The acting in this movie is really good.

This is a great example of why I watch B movies—or is that, "bee movies?" It's stupid as hell but quite entertaining.In the small town of Peckham, California, middle-aged men are serially dropping dead during the sex act. So, it happens while they peck 'em. (Hey, at least I didn't say, "They came and they went.") As some of the dead men were scientists at a federally-funded laboratory, the State Department sends Agent Neil Agar (William Smith) to investigate the matter. As he tells the town sheriff, "They sent me down on this one. It looks like an easy one after that last one." (Don't ask me what the hell he's talking about.)With the help of one Julie Zorn (Victoria Vetri), Agar discovers that the culprits are women who have been genetically modified with the DNA of honey bees. The queen bee is Dr. Susan Harris (Anitra Ford), a researcher at the lab. All it takes is a single gunshot from Agar to destroy Harris' lab, electrocuting all the bee women in the process and neutralizing the threat to the balding, doughy men of Peckham. Unlike a lot of B movies, the night scenes here were actually shot at night. But the lighting is so bad, you hardly see what's happening on screen. On the other hand, a protracted scene in which the hot young Dr. Harris beds and kills a 50-year-old doughy guy made me glad about the awful lighting.As a sci-fi movie, this one really doesn't pass muster. But who cares with all the boobs and butts on display? And the scene in which the modification process is shown from start to finish really is something to see.Item: The sheriff's station is obviously someone's house. It even has a car port.Item: The coroner's lab is the size of a GP's exam room and has a disturbingly low ceiling.Item: Some of the cinematography shows cleverness and imagination, particularly as involves the bee women's points of view.Item: In one brutal scene, three hoodlums attempt to rape Ms. Zorn. Luckily, Agar is right around the corner and pounds the bastards senseless. However, neither Julie nor Agar sees a need to call the cops on these punks. And the young lady bounces back from this traumatic experience with remarkable speed.Item: Anitra Ford's best scenes are without dialogue. She really couldn't act.Item: Anitra Ford was one of the first "showgirls" on CBS-TV's "The Price is Right."

The small town of Peckham is having a rash of men who died from sex...."coming and going at the same time" they joke. But is no laughing matter as Captain Peters (Cliff Osmond) with a Ron Jeremy mustache, investigates with a whack-a-da sound track. Okay, maybe it is camp enough to be a laughing matter...especially the classic love scene of a naked couple rolling down a hill. This was an era where the movie telephone number didn't have a "555" in it and TV stations signed off the air. Oh yes, not to give away a 40 year old plot, but the film was about gene splicing which was centuries away.Guide: No swearing. Sex, rape, nudity (Anitra Ford-"Price is Right" model, Julie Zorn, Sharon Kelly, Susan Player, Beverly Powers, Rene Bond, Anna Aries)

TITLE: INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS opened in theaters across the country on June 1 1973 and it took 85 minutes to watch.STARRING: Invasion of the Bee Girls was a 1973 science fiction film, the first film venture for writer Nicholas Meyer. Directed by Denis Saunders, the premise of the movie is that a mad scientist (played by Anitra Ford) has created an army of beauties who seduce men to death. This movie was also been released on DVD as Graveyard Tramps.SUMMARY: Neil Agar, a security agent with the State Department, is dispatched to Peckham, California to investigate the death of John Grubowsky, a bacteriologist working at government-sponsored Brandt Research. Quickly making the acquaintance of the laboratory's head librarian, Julie Zorn, he begins interviewing the firm's leading scientists, many of whom have reputations as sexual players. His investigation soon becomes complicated by a growing number of deaths, all men who died of congestive heart failure caused by sexual exhaustion. Faced with a rapidly escalating body count, the local sheriff, Captain Peters, holds a town meeting at which the laboratory's leading sex researcher, Henry Murger, urges the town populace to practice sexual abstinence – an idea greeted with derision by the locals. Neil and Julie arrange a meeting with Murger afterwords to discuss his theories as to the cause of his deaths, only to see him chased down and run over by a car with an unseen driver. While investigating Murger's home in search of clues, Neil discovers a secret room concealing sexual paraphernalia and Murger's gay lover, Joe, who informs Neil that he saw Murger driving off with an unknown woman prior to his death. Despite a curfew and the establishment of a military quarantine, the scientists continue playing their sex games. One of them, Herb Kline, is approached by Susan Harris, a beautiful entomologist working on bees. Though described by the men as an "iceberg," she flirts with Kline and invites him over for dinner. That night, as they engage in sex, Kline suffers a fatal thrombosis and Harris reveals black compound eyes suggesting that she is more than she appears. QUESTIONS: Why was Kline convinced there was a small pattern? Why was Neil studying the sexual patterns of insects? What was Dr Harris keeping in her lab that she didn't want anyone to see? How did the Bee Girls get started? Where did the Bee Girls come from? Why was Herb Kline killed? MY THOUGHTS: First thing I want to say is I don't like Science Fiction or Horror movies? With that being said when they star Anitra Ford that changes the whole concept. Anitra Ford was breath taking in her role as Doctor Susan Harris. Everyone else in this movie was second best. The love scene with Doctor Harris was breath taking also. This movie does wonder for not only Anitra Ford talent, but her beautiful body also. Base on Anitra Ford alone I give this movie 10 weasel stars.

Inspired 70's b-movie about a colony of bees that manage to infiltrate the minds and bodies of glamorous women, and use them as vessels for a takeover of mankind. Here's the rub, so to speak: they 'sting' their prey during copulation with the male species. Hence the 'R' rating. A bevy of buxom b-movie starlets (and loops, e.g. Rene Bond, Kathy Hilton), work their way around the campus of a university under the watchful eye of the sultry Anitra Ford, as she pilots their take-over of the town of Peckham. Alarmed at the increasing rate of stiffs being wheeled into the morgue, local police captain (Osmond) welcomes Federal agent William Smith (in fine, fighting form) along with bimbo sidekick Victoria Vetri, sent to investigate the strange phenomena.Witty dialogue (courtesy of noted word-smith and director Nicholas Meyer) sets this cult sci-fi apart; Denis Sanders' direction isn't especially taut and momentum does tend to sag, but the constant influx of quirky characters and situations is irresistibly entertaining. Some of the special effects used to depict the bee-vision isn't bad either, considering its vintage. The cast is an interesting assembly of talent, with experience (Smith, Hammer, Osmond, King in particular) offset by rank amateurism. Anitra Ford is a beguiling woman, but her acting talents here are lamentable. Fortunately, her looks do tend to compensate.Don't be mislead by some of the associated press and commentary concerning this film: while it isn't soft porn, nor is it "Invasion of the Body Snatchers" in narrative or technical standard. Disbelief aside, if you can appreciate the dry humour and lusty amateurs who adorn the screen (sometimes being smothered in bee wax for good measure) you should enjoy this, one-of-a-kind movie experience.
