WASP WOMAN 1995 (NEW CONCORDE)

A very good remake produced by Roger Corman.

Jennifer Rubin stars as Janice Starlin, the head of a cosmetics firm that is growing older and desperately seeking a way to stay young and keep her company afloat. She meets Dr. Zinthorp, played by Daniel J. Travanti who uses a special serum on her made of wasp enzymes and it slowly makes her younger.

The doctor disappears after being attacked by his now mutated wasp/cat and Janice panics. She takes too much of the new drug and soon finds that she is changing. And what changing it is!!

The scenes of Rubin morphing into a wasp monster are very well done an the direction by Jim Wynorski is good as well. This stays pretty close to the original movie directed by Corman back in 1959. The rest of the cast includes Maria Ford, Jay Richardson, Fred Olen Ray, Gerritt Graham, Richard Gabai, Julie K. Smith and the always sexy Melissa Brasselle. Recommended if you can find it.
