what a shame.


The book is so good too.

Had they made the movie as a series of vignettes where different characters face off against the bees while scientists feverishly work to quell the invasion, the movie would have worked. As it is, it's like a grade school adaptation or something. Honestly... Richard Widmark's death scene is just silly and embarrassing.

The book is great. The movie is a mournful reflection on what might have been.
