The premise

Corporate smuggling of South American killer bees into the United States results in huge swarms terrorizing the northern hemisphere. A small team of scientists work desperately to destroy the threat, but the bees soon mutate into a super-intelligent species that threatens the world.

Horror Vault's take

When a clandestine smuggling operation brings deadly South American killer bees into the United States, the results are catastrophic — vast swarms descend on an unprepared public with terrifying ferocity. A desperate race begins as a small group of scientists struggles to contain the spreading menace before it consumes the entire northern hemisphere. What starts as a containment problem quickly escalates into something far stranger and more unsettling than anyone anticipated.
