WAR OF THE INSECTS (1966, aka GENOCIDE) Yusuke Kawazu, Emi Shindo, Kathy Moran. It’s man against bugs in this cool sci-fi shocker. A plane carrying an atomic bomb is attacked by a new strain of killer bees. The bees have been created by a crazed female scientist who has ideas of world conquest. Lots of cool scenes of man battling bugs. There is one grisly scene in particular that shows extreme close-ups of insects biting into human flesh. Nice color, widescreen, from 16mm. 2+5: MISSION HYDRA (1966) Kirk Morris, Gordon Mitchell, Roland Lesafre. Aliens from the planet Hydra land on Earth and kidnap a group of humans. Hibernating robots, aliens with incinerating rays, a planet of ape monsters, photon showers, and a spaceship of skeletons are all featured. Tight bikinis, and miniskirts are the galactic fashion in this space epic. Color, 16mm.
