Killer Bees?

[Funk, E]

Frankly I think nothing could be more terrifing than a movie about killer newts.
Tagline: Slow, relentless, too cute to kill... NEWTS! (cue music)

Imagine caterpillars on a rampage. Not the tent caterpillars, or anything particularly hungry or ugly. This would be the cute little wooly bear caterpillars. A wave of fuzzy death engulfs a small town. Victims giggle uncontrollably as they are tickled to death. Throw in an evil land developer who destroyed the caterpillars' habitat, a dimwitted mayor who's only worried about bad publicity, a self-righteous local know-it-all and a beautiful, independent young caterpillar expert, and you have something.

All it needs is a title, like The Killer Fuzz or something.

...or Caterkiller!

[Funk, E]

Oh, you could go all out with that one! It could start off with cute little caterpillers and the developer is using a fact acting chemical agent to make the concrete age faster and the caterpillers go into crysalys state to emerge... dun, dun dun.... CHANGED!

[Funk, E]

Run away! Run away! There Flang, feel better?

[Vermin Boy]

I hear ya, it's been like that for years up here... Story goes some college or scientific institute was experimenting on them, then just let them free, and things went from there. Come to think of it, that'd be a pretty good plot for the movie-- Sort of a Night of the Lepus thing. We've had an abundance of ladybugs in the house the past few winters... Oh yeah, and a word of advice: Never, EVER eat one!

[AndyC]

Lady bugs could be given the cane toad treatment. I'd like to see a scene with one trying to eat a pigeon.

I'm thinking this idea might make a better TV special than a theatrical release. One of those two-parters for May Two-Four (Memorial Day in the States).

ABC presents the world television premiere of Peter Benchley's The Fuzz.

Attack of the Mushroom Men!

Tagline: Eat Me!

[Funk, E]

Maybe as an  X-Files Season Cliffhanger/Premier. Can't you just imagine all the people on the edge of there seats all off season waiting to se what dasterly things the little fuzzy buggers do! I smell emmy!

[Flangepart]

"She turned me into a Newt!"  "A newt? " " ......................I got better..."

[Funk, E]

Ahhh, couldn't resist the Monty Python urge after all could you! Mwahahahah!

[Vermin Boy]

Been done, believe it or not, only with "People" instead of "Men." By Inoshiro Honda, director of the original Godzilla, no less.

[Funk, E]

Fine! How about "Killer Mutant Bovine from Outer f**king Space!" Has that been done, hu? hu?

PS.
;-) I'm not really upset or surprised now that I think about it.

[The Future Blob]

   Actually I'm amazed no one has done a "Mad Cow" movie....

   The Killer Fuzz sounds like a sixties movie...


    Howzabout Fireflys? "Don't go towards the Light..."
