    • Goofs
      The instructional insect video states, "Examples of the female killing the male during mating are numerous in the insect world." Immediately after this, it states, "Here, the black widow awaits..." The black widow is a spider, and spiders are not insects.

      Neil Agar: [to Stan] You're the geneticist, aren't you? Can you cross a man and a horse?

      Stan Williams: You're asking me?

      Neil Agar: Yes.

      Aldo Ferrara: I told him you'd get a centaur - mythologically speaking.

      Stan Williams: [irritated] Realistically speaking, you'd get a summons for bestiality. Come on, Agar, what's with the asinine questions?

    • Alternate versions
      The recent MGM DVD is missing footage. Part of the scene where Beverly Powers (Hills) seduces her man is missing, deleting some of her nudity. This may have been due to damaged materials used to create the DVD, as the scene is intact on the old VHS (and on two budget DVDs that used the VHS for their source). The MGM version looks the best this low-budget film has ever looked, but the missing footage rankles. The same incomplete print runs on pay cable and MGM did not fix the problem and reissue the DVD.

    Well, Cover Me In Marshmallow Cream!...

    INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS is about a string of deaths caused by the buzzy ladies of the title. It seems that male humans are being seduced and "loved" into their untimely departures! Special agent, Neil Agar (William Smith) is enlisted to get to the bottom of things. Could the mysterious Dr. Susan Harris (Anitra Ford) be behind the shagging shenanigans?

    Absolutely absurd in every way imaginable, this movie has a certain charm, mostly involving nude women in huge sunglasses being covered in bee goo (aka: white glop that looks suspiciously like marshmallow cream)!

    Indeed, this was the sort of film our forefathers would sneak off to see at the drive-in, hoping to catch a glimpse of something "naughty"! Of course, by today's standards, this movie is quite tame, even quaint. Still, it's a bit of fun for anyone who can see it in its proper context. Otherwise, the sting of boredom will be thy only reward...
