Yet again, another one of those movies has returned. A film with the scenario of "Killer-animal(s)-stalks-people-as-they-struggle-to-survive". Using killer bees for the basis of this film, DEADLY INVASION begins with a head-scratcher of a message telling us that this film is based on something that MAY have actually happened.
Robert Hays, Nancy Stafford, Ryan Phillipe, and Dennis Christopher are the stars of this film that follows one family's struggle to survive against the deadly swarm while trapped inside their desolate farm house. I really enjoyed the film. I felt that it was very well put together and was pretty good. Not worthy of any awards or anything, but entertaining nonetheless. DEADLY INVASION is a film that is memorable in the genre, but otherwise, it is not. DEADLY INVASION gets 3/5.
Oh, and to everyone that complains that this movie is humorous, if you want humor, scroll to the bottom of this page and read the comment written by the annonymous user who calls this film two words that don't exist: Volkomen Kut?? Go ahead, read it...you will laugh yourself silly.

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.
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!)
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!
There are not many things you could do to make this movie worse. This movie was so bad, I couldn't believe it. It wasn't scary at all, the acting was bad and so was the story, the special effects, the characters, even the title was ridiculous. If there was a book. I believe, they invented the movie while they produced it. Whoever you are that you read this: If you haven't seen this movie, don't watch it. Carnosaurus is a much better movie than the Killer Bee nightmare. At least those dinosaurs could kill someone. In contrary to those bees, not one of those morons died, even though I wished so badly for it :-(
