4.0 out of 5 stars Great `B' movie!, September 8, 2006

This review is from: Invasion of the Star Creatures/Invasion of the Bee Girls (DVD)

(3.5/5 stars) I agree with the other reviewers that this is an odd pairing because "Invasion of the Star Creatures" is a black and white movie suitable for nearly all ages, while "Invasion of the Bee Girls" is an R-rated movie with sex, nudity and violence. I started to watch "Invasion of the Star Creatures," but it was so bad I could not finish it. Perhaps someday. This is more a review of the flip side, "Invasion of the Bee Girls" (aka "Graveyard Tramps"). Knowing nothing about this prior to viewing it, I was pleasantly surprised. Someone, or some thing, is having sex with the townswomen's husbands until they die (not that the men are complaining). The Bee Girls recruit the townswomen too, making the "threat" difficult to contain. Agent Agar (William Smith) is brought in to investigate, giving the movie a semblance of legitimacy. This is the type of neat little movie that doesn't try to overextend itself despite a limited budget. The few special effects are not very elaborate and work well enough for a movie of this scope. The filmmakers recognize the fact most people will not watch this for the special effects or sci-fi components, but rather for gratuitous nudity. On this count it delivers. Yes, it is trashy, but it knows its audience, does well with what it has and is also competent enough to avoid being too easily dismissed. Get this DVD for this movie and consider the other one a bonus.

This review is from: Invasion of the Star Creatures/Invasion of the Bee Girls (DVD)

Another interesting drive-in double feature from MGM's Midnite Movies line. But be warned: Although MGM usually does a fine job of pairing similar films, these two are very different.

I was initially most intrigued by INVASION OF THE STAR CREATURES, as I consider myself quite a fan of 50's and 60's sci-fi, and had never even heard of this one. I wasn't prepared for the sheer silliness of the story. The best comparison I can draw would be the equally goofy (but much more entertaining) Jerry Lewis sci-fi/comedy VISIT TO A SMALL PLANET. A pair of Abbott & Costello-types get mixed up with some scantily-clad space babes. Plot? I guess there's one in there somewhere, but don't strain too hard. It's a mildly diverting, cheap little comedy that I'm in no hurry to watch again.

INVASION OF THE BEE GIRLS, although similar in title, is actually a bit of 70's drive-in exploitation trash. The title characters seduce poor Earth-men and kill them, while recruiting busty Earth-women into their ranks. The sex is strictly softcore stuff, but it's still an odd pairing with such an innocuous piece of fluff like STAR CREATURES.

Honestly, folks, neither of these films is that great. But I give MGM 3 stars for a first-rate presentation of some fairly obscure films that any serious drive-in afficiando will want in their collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars Strange duo, December 13, 2005

Star Creatures is a goofy black and white knock off of Abbott and Costello Goes To Mars. there's some hot alien ladies in the cast. And lots of goofy comedy.

Invasion of the Bee Girls is a tempting piece of 70s scifi about women who wear big sunglasses. unlike the first feature - this is not meant to be seen by small children. The women are extra hot in this creepy low budget film where the men can't handle the pleasures of the new gals in town.

Both transfers are in fine shape. Good trashy drive in fun.
