INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS (1973) - Ok, now this is great filmmaking. I loved this film. It's kinda like a advancment of WASP WOMAN from the 60's. You have to like the 70's movie music and surroundings, the bee girls with the black eyes and sunglasses, the early dialogue, the transformation of the wife, the dead bodies. Great stuff. It's why we all love B-movies. Can't believe this is the first time I've seen this one.

I have an old VHS copy of this kicking around somewhere . . .

FLIX showed the uncut version of INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS last night. Great stuff.

And what a cast!  William Smith and Victoria Vetri  (mmm...Victoria Vetri).  Check out my review of it here (with pics!):

Professor Hathaway: Up the voltage.

I caught part of Invasion of the Bee Girls (where they are covering a girl with beeswax or something) and it just looked utterly stupid to me but then again I guess it kind of intends to be.  FLIX also shows The Incredible Two Headed Transplant with Bruce Dern and Pat Priest ( the 2nd Marilyn Munster from the Munsters.)  It's worth seeing and it's pretty funny, I taped it.  I've seen them play it several times.

This one should be out on dvd - yet another overlooked b-movie classic....

While on a journey, Chuang Tzu found an old skull, dry and parched.
With sorrow, he questioned and lamented the end of all things.
When he finished speaking, he dragged the skull over and, using it for a pillow, lay down to sleep.
In the night, the skull came to his dreams and said, 'You are a fool to rejoice in the entanglements of life.'
Chuang Tzu couldn`t believe this and asked, 'If I could return you to your life, you would want that, wouldn`t you?'
Stunned by Chuang Tzu`s foolishness, the skull replied, 'How do you know that it is bad to be dead?'

StatCat give it another chance from beginning to end. I think you might like it.
