    Now then, if you like a good old-fashioned `B` Movie (you know the one they used to run after the main feature) may I commend to you the recently released `Flying Virus`. Cert. 15.
    Now without ruining the plot for you, it`s about the failure of the U.S. to sign up to any environmental controls which so outrages the bee population of the southern Amazon.... I don`t think I better tell you anymore.

    If you enjoy a good `B` movie, make a bee line for this at your local video store.
