Swarm - Lo sciame che uccide (1978)
Dopo aver assalito e sterminato una guarnigione militare nel Texas, uno sciame di api assassine proveniente dal Brasile si avvia in un devastante raid verso il cuore degli Stati Uniti. La Casa Bianca affida il compito di neutralizzarlo all'entomologo Brad Crane, che chiama in aiuto lo scienziato Walter Krim. Ma la soluzione tarda a venire, le api dilagano, e i militari impongono rimedi peggiori del male.
