Not too hot, and the pic on the cover is extremely misleading. I’ve actually heard of this “classic” before seeing it, and was looking forward to watching it even more when I saw it was an early Roger Corman flick. Man! This was a very long 73 minutes – talk about boring. I almost fell asleep three or four times.

The aging owner of a cosmetics company was working with a questionable scientist on a beauty formula based on queen bee secretions. Insisting that she be the first to try this formula (of course…), she is transformed into a remarkably younger and more vibrant young woman. Unfortunately the formula has side effects that cause her to eventually transform into a human wasp (in, like the last three minutes of the movie…) that preys upon its victims at night.

The best character in this movie is the serious male character, whose name I don’t think was ever mentioned though he was a primary protagonist, who is constantly smoking a pipe. Constantly. The worst character is everybody else. I suppose the rip-off of Bela Lugosi as the scientist could be the worst, but he’s in a tight race with everybody else.

Definitely a contestant for anybody’s stupid movie night, though I’d advise you waste your 73 minutes with something a little more worth watching – like Battlefield Earth or something.
