Starlin's Enterprises Cosmetics is going down the tubes all because the once beautiful Janice Starlin had the nerve to AGE, losing her youthful beauty and turning into an old crone that nobody wants to look at let alone buy lipstick from!When she meets the peculiar scientist, Dr. Eric Winthrop she learns about his experiments with special wasps from the Amazonian jungle- their jelly may be the key to restoring her youth- but he just needs more time to complete his research.
Time? Time? Time is Janice's enemy, so she does what she has to, to save her empire- at ANY COST!
Produced in 1959 by the legendary B-Movie Producer, Roger Corman, The Wasp Woman is cheap and horrible, and we love it.
Some view the film as a commentary of the absurd pressure women feel to conform to patriarchal beauty standards. It can turn women into- MONSTERS!
FREE POPCORN, REFRESHMENTS AVAILABLE, TRIVIA, PRIZES, WIN HANDBAG TICKETS, NERDY POST SHOW FILM DISCUSSION!
