Scream Factory has announced a Blu-ray release for a old late night drive-in movie classic, Invasion of the Bee Girls (1973).

Invasion of the Bee Girls Blu-ray PRE-ORDER

Wiki Link to Invasion Of The Bee Girls (1973).

Quoting my write-up over on Home Theater Forum:
===============================================

Now that I've reviewed this film on DVD, I see it as a R-Rated version of a Star Trek TOS episode if they were allowed to make those back in the day. Imagine a R-rated version of Spocks Brain (bevy of dangerous beauties ) or That Which Survives (stunning beauty Losira who kills all the men she "is for").

However other than Nicholas Meyer, no connection to the Star Trek franchise is either stated or implied in the film.

My earlier write-up:
================================================== ========================
For those of us who were around in the early 1970s (and of age) might remember sneaking into those late-night drive in theaters to check out those R-rated films shown. For me I was with my older brother & friends who basically threw me (age 14) into the trunk and then proceeded into a western Pennsylvania drive-in during the Fall of 1973 where of course I was let out to check out a R-rated double feature, first of which was Invasion Of The Bee Girls (1973).

Talk about an education!

Anyway this sex-fantasy sci-fi film has the distinction of being the first effort from Nicholas Meyer who of course went on to lasting film making fame for Star Trek, The Wrath Of Khan (1982).

Some gratuitous nudity (but full-frontal nudity was still prohibited in R-rated films at this time as one can tell in certain scenes) but not enough to call this a skin-flick. But enough to make the jaw of most hetero males drop.

Scream Factory has announced on their FB page a Blu-ray release of IOTBG (73) for Spring/Summer of 2017 but no exact date as of yet (UPDATE: Amazon release date of April 4th, 2017 announced. Link in OP).
More info to come as it becomes avaliable.

And another one off my original Favourite 1970s Films not yet on Blu list.
