Watch out! Dragon Wasps ready to swarm your house in September

If the promo blurbs are to be believed, Joe Knee’s DRAGON WASPS is “the ultimate cross breed between timely jungle thrillers like PREDATOR and ANACONDA and gigantic critter delights such as EIGHT LEGGED FREAKS and LAKE PLACID” as well as “a relentless giant-creature action hybrid that blows Roger Corman right out of the water”. Oh, and it was also penned by Mark Atkins, the director of SAND SHARKS, so all that should give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. The flick will be hitting DVD on September 24th and you can check out some stills and cover art below. As to what it’s actually about:

When a clue arises as to the whereabouts of her scientist father, three months after he inexplicably disappeared on an expedition deep in the heart of the Belize rainforest, entomologist Gina Humphries and her impassioned assistant Rhonda set out on a makeshift rescue mission. Unfortunately, unbeknownst to them the land they’re desperate to cross is Government protected and without the correct documentation they subsequently find themselves stopped dead in their tracks and whisked away to the hands of officer John Hammond. Due to the ongoing feud between the US Army and the rainforest’s guerrilla military, lead by the notorious Jaguar, Hammond agrees to escort Gina and Rhonda to her desired destination as one last escapade with his team before his retirement. When their convoy is ambushed by Jaguar and his men, things quickly turn sour and they find themselves amidst a bloody shootout. Yet it soon becomes apparent that it’s not their known enemies that present the biggest threat in the jungle…

DRAGON WASPS stars Corin Nemec, Dominika Juillet, Benjamin Easterday, Nikolette Noel and Cosondra Sjostrom.
