Una mortale invasione

This movie was so bad that it was actually funny. Here are some examples:

1) Fearing being stung to death, the family continues wearing loose and unbuttoned clothing for unknown reasons.

2) The father bundles up with layer after layer of clothing to run to the Jeep and drive for help. He walks out onto the porch and proceeds to stand and swat the bees (that can no longer sting him) for at least a minute.

3) The jeep won't start! The reason? The bees were in the air filter!

4) The son is in the attic and spraying the bees down with a hose that his friend is feeding him. The son is pumping gallon after gallon of water into the attic. Since he was standing on the wet drywall instead of the wooden joists, he falls through the floor into a "locked" room. His friend, instead of opening the door, trembles in fear and the son never even yells for him to open the door.

5) The reason he was "locked" in the room? Earlier the father pushed a towel underneath the door from the hallway. If that's not bad enough, the door opens into the bedroom, not the hallway.

6) After abandoning the house through an underground passage, the father nearly takes the head off one of the other people with an axe.

These people were so stupid that a pervious script probably had them setting the house on fire while they were still inside to kill the bees. Seriously, if you love to yell at idiots on TV then watch this movie at any cost! You'll have a blast yelling at these fools!

This movie is similar to the serial of Tomorrow People: THE CULEX EXPERIMENT (Except Culex fools around with bees instead of mosquitos). This movie lacked entertainment. Three words describe: GOOD, BAD, and REALLYBAD. (I know it's two words, okay!)

I WAS IN THIS MOVIE! As a teenager, a friend got me and my bandmates hired to play in the band that played at the outside wedding reception that the bees attacked! That's me in the red vest playing guitar and running into the house. That dork they showed playing lead guitar was dubbed in later.

Highlights were: Meeting Mr. Hays (I'm a fan of airplane), who was really nice to us musicians as he had a hobby of building custom guitars, and either dated or was married to a famous 80's rocker.

The Bee wrangler was nice and explained at great length how the queenless actor-hive had to be perpetually replenished. A bee vomited a blob of honey on my bandmates leather sleeve and I ate it.

It rained during the day and the guitar I used got wet and I felt it had gotten a little warpy- that very night I had a gig at the bar (snuck in as I wasn't 21), and I threw the guitar off the stage and smashed it at the climax of the show.

I saw the movie and liked looking for myself and the tunnel scene.

Note to all movie watchers- movies rule when your in them, no matter how bad they are.

Actually, I have seen this movie and even more, I was cast as an extra when they filmed it at my high school. It was kind of fun to see how things work behind the cameras. The finished product was just fantastic! I thought they did a very good job in locations and things like that. It was pretty cool to see my home-town depicted as a California community, even though I live a time zone away. My friends and I had a good time picking out where we were and how many times we appeared in the film. It was so much fun! I think the acting was perfect for a made for TV movie and the filming locations they used were utilized incredibly well. It gives movies a whole new aspect after you have spent time on the set. If you like thrillers, and b-type movies, give it a shot!

I saw Deadly Invasion: The Killer Bee Nightmare the first time it was on TV, February 28, 1995; it was on again in August, 1997, but I thought once was enough. The movie showed just how ignorant and stupid too many Americans are. Not only are they ignorant of the killer bees. Too many Americans believe in nonsense-meaningless stereotypes! Chad Ingram represents the hero father, as if EVERY dad has to match up to that image, which is not true. Karen represents the archetypal suburban mom; Tracy and Lucy are the equally ignorant daughters. Though these killer bees are only partly understood at the present, it is unlikely that they would go so far as to travel in CLOUDS and surround the Ingram home completely, much less work their way INSIDE and cut off electricity and telephone service to boot! Yet so many Americans are so ignorant to BELIEVE that such is likely to happen! By the same token, many Americans believe that all persons should match up to the stereotypes that the Ingrams show, that all the earth imitate LORE instead of reflecting the holiness of God! So, having seen that flick once, that suffices to make me realize that Amercian society has a lot of growing up to do.
