Scientist Dr. Bradford Crane and army general Thalius Slater join forces to fight an almost invisible enemy threatening America; killer bees that have deadly venom and attack without reason. Disaster movie-master Irwin Allen's film contains spectacular special effects, including a train crash caused by the eponymous swarm.
Dr. Bradford Crane struggles to prevent a biological catastrophe as an invisible wave of stinging insects turns the coastline into a death trap. This Irwin Allen spectacle trades subtlety for massive destruction, featuring everything from exploding waterfronts to a chaotic locomotive wreckage.
