Swarmed
2005 · Movie · 88 min. · Canada
In the small town of Dundas, Indiana, genetic researcher Ken Horvath (MICHAEL SHANKS) is working in his laboratory at night. He moves over to a glass case holding eight very large yellow jacket wasps. He sprays the yellow jackets with a greenish solution and sets his timer. The wasps die in record time. Later that night, we see the same dead yellow jackets. There is a stirring – a limb twitches, a body moves. Two of them are still alive and escape from the glass case! The halls are quiet, dark and empty – all the workers have gone home…except for one. Roy Peltor, the night janitor, hears the buzzing sound getting closer and closer. The two yellow jackets dive at his face. Roy screams in fear and pain, striking out blindly, crushing one of the wasps, but his face is bleeding as he falls to the ground, dead, and the surviving wasp flies away.
