Summary: A classic
Review: This is a must have movie for all lovers of bad movies. The film manages to include bees of incredible power that appear nearly invulnerable. An quasi-all star cast livens the movie up with their absolutely astonishing attempts to act convincingly.
The premise is, of course, completely believable (assuming you're on a 2 week drinking binge).

And be sure to watch carefully for the single most politically incorrect scene ever seen on film.

For some reason this film left me with an incredible craving for breakfast cereal.

Enjoy!!

Summary: DVD release just about everything you could want.
Review: Warner Brothers DVD release of Irwin Allen's cult classic bomb The Swarm features a beautifully rendered widescreen transfer (which is the only format to truly appreciate this movie), the theatrical trailer, and a straight faced and rather serious sounding behind the scenes documentary that looks to have been made for televsion airing for the film's summer time hype (it contains easy to see commercial break segues). Sadly the promised Michael Caine commentary and Big Bug trivia did not come through, though there is a biography for the late Master of Disaster in the Cast and Crew section (it is also the only one offered). As we all know, mutant killer bees threaten Texas and Michael Caine and a whole lot of back-up stars have to stop them, or else. The movie remains a goofy, silly disaster movie that is incredibly hard to dislike. If you love so bad they're good movies, then this disc is a must have. An essential for any schlock fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: a buzzing good time
Review: what else can be said of irwin allen!!! he is so great!!!! i remember seeing this movie in the hey day of the killer bee story and i was totally blow away by the movie. michael caine is so awsome in this movie along with a supporting cast that really makes the movie even better. I thought the best part was the burning of houston. yes some of the acting was overdone but hey thats an irwin allen film for you. I highly recomend this movie to everyone

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Worse than I remember, plus wrong bonus feature info
Review: When you see a movie with your sweetie on a warm summer evening when the world was young, you tend to remember it through rose-colored glasses. When you watch it 25 years later in this scary new age, reality bites. This is a bad movie. I mean really bad. It makes The Poseidon Adventure and Towering Inferno seem like masterpieces. At least they had a cheesy charm. This has none. this DVD DOES NOT have commentary by Michael Caine.
