Summary:
"When a government researcher with access to a top-secret lab shows up dead, a federal investigator is sent to find out what happened. While searching for clues, the bodies of local men are found, after suffering major heart attacks, apparently worn out from sex. Women who have been affected by radiation are going after the men, seeing them as drones and taking on the role of queen bees, killing them after mating. Security agent Neil Agar is on the case in 1970s California."--Container.
"'Invasion of the Bee Girls is the best schlock soft-core science fiction movie since The Vengeance of She,' buzzed critic Roger Ebert. And who wouldn't be terrified at the very thought of watching these bee-hived beauties love their chosen mates to death? The Bee Girls are more than just killers, they're 'a buzzing race of lovelies, spawned by radiation, with big, black Stepford Wives eyes and bigger D-cup chests' (Cinefantastique)! In a small California town, a number of men--after making love--start dropping like flies. A government inspector investigates these strange occurrences and uncovers a horrific, out-of-this-world phenomenon. Now, he alone must stop it before he becomes one of the Queen Bee's honeys!" -- Container.
