The late 1970s was an interesting time for major stars of the 1930s and beyond, as while they were all still fine actors, they were no longer considered lead attractions.
And so was born the star-studded natural disaster thriller.
Irwin Allen may have done it better than anyone.
Think Poseidon Adventure or Towering Inferno.
In The Swarm, probably the biggest bee epic ever to grace the silver sheet, we have:
Michael Caine
Richard Chamberlain
Olivia de Havilland
Bradford Dillman
Patty Duke
Jose Ferrer
Henry Fonda
Lee Grant
Fred MacMurray
Cameron Mitchell
Katharine Ross
Richard Widmark
and
Ben Johnson
Warner Archive is presenting The Swarm, along with a promo documentary, and as always, the quality is precisely where fans would like it to be.
No more need be said.
A treat for genre fans!
