&
bee-attack http://akas.imdb.com/List?tv=on&&keywords=bee-attack&&heading=19;bee-attack

There was TV movie the same year this came out it starred Kate Jackson and Eddie Albert. It was called Killer Bees.
shareCompletely unrelated, but there's a Craig Sheffer, Gabriel Anwar and Rutger Hauer film called 'Flying Virus' that's about a swarm of 'killer bees' infected with a pathological agent being released on a commerical airliner.
It makes 'The Swarm' look like the greatest film ever made :P, and I don't recommend it. To anyone.
Terror out of the sky
shareRe you not thinking of Phase IV which was a very creepy movie about ants and came out a couple of years before The Swarm?
shareYeah, it was called "Killer Bees" released in 1974 starring edward albert and kate jackson.
shareYou should also check out THE SAVAGE BEES - which is genuinely scary in places, made in 1976 and WAY better than THE SWARM. Especially with the woman trapped in her VW Bug and being sent through New Orleans to the Superdome.
As for FLYING VIRUS, what a load of dreck. Real RIFFTRAX gold there. Now one has to ask didn't this inspire SNAKES ON A PLANE in some ways?!
