The film that gave Pam Grier her first leading role and vaulted her to queen bee of the blaxploitation movement also inspired a soundtrack that is arguably Roy Ayers's most rewarding work.
Mandingo is a 1975 film, based on the book Mandingo by Kyle Onstott, about a African slave in the 1840s United States who is trained as a prize fighter by his owner.
It should be noted that the term 'blaxploitation' refers to the films' continuation of the trashy 'exploitation' films of the 1960's rather than the film studios 'using' black actors.

 Invasion of the Wasp Women - Chapter One
Please note also that though there are Fifties science-fiction films which involve beautiful, tightly-laced women ( Plan 9 from Outer Space, Invaders from Mars, Queen of Outer Space, etc.) this story is not based on any of them, nor on the film Invasion of the Bee Girls, which I've never seen.
In the early part of this century, everyone knew that the surface of Mars was criss-crossed by canals.
If you like it that's a useful by-product, but it's already done its job of letting me enjoy writing at a time when I was tired of it, and that's worth a lot.

 Invasion of the Bee Girls (1972)
First there’s the outrageously silly premise - women injecting radiation-mutated bee venom to become queen bee creatures that exhaust the town’s menfolk in the heat of sexual passion.
A state investigator finds that women at a nearby laboratory are using a radiation-mutated bee serum to turn themselves into bee creatures and are being driven to kill men through sex.
While his handling of actors is clearly amateurish, Sanders delivers scenes that fall between the cheesy and the lyrical - a lyrical hillside romp, parodying 1970s nudie movies, that turns into a bee attack; and Anitra Ford’s seduction of a scientist and slow undressing to classical music.

Joan Collins subsequently had greater success evoking Crawford in her "Dynasty" frocks than Dunaway's misguided attempt in "Mommie Dearest." In my review of "Queen Bee," I pointed out that "Mommie Dearest" borrowed heavily from this over-the-top 1955
Crawford did not dress like this in real life or, for that matter, in any other film.

(These trolls all share a shoe fetish and are particularly fond of the music of the Bee Gees.) The Queen had then used her magic to transform Prince Wendell into the shape of her dog (with the Queen's dog correspondingly changed into the shape of the Prince).
The main thrust of the story concerns their transportation via a magic mirror to the fairy tale Nine Kingdoms to rescue the throne of Prince Wendell from the evil machinations of the Queen his wicked step-mother who is bent on destroying the House of White (yes, Snow White).

 deseretnews.com - Movie review: Emma Deseret Morning News Web edition
Emma Woodhouse is, of course, the queen bee of busybodies, forever meddling in everyone else's love life, yet quite unable to figure out her own.
But the film's success definitely rises and sets on Paltrow, who is required to carry the film on her shoulders all the way.
Emma also interferes with Frank Churchill (Ewan McGregor, in a role that is a far cry from the one he plays in "Trainspotting"), eligible gadabout son of a prominent neighbor — but he has some romantic notions of his own.

 Barbara Hershey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hershey's powerful performance as a manipulative queen bee made a large impression on Woody Allen, who would later foster her mid-80s career revival by casting her in his greatest commercial success Hannah and Her Sisters.
In 2001, Hershey was part of a largely Australian ensemble cast for the critically successful Australian film Lantana, which also starred Kerry Armstrong, Anthony LaPaglia and Geoffrey Rush playing a troubled psychiatrist.
Adapting that book into a film would become a 16 year labor of love for Scorsese, who would eventually cast Hershey as Mary Magdalene- though not before making her audition, to prove that she had earned it.

 Amazon.com: Professional: Golgo 13 (1992) : Video
The sequel, "Queen Bee: Golgo 13," (which I have also already reviewed) comes with an audio commentary by the film's Japanese director and executive producer.
This DVD came with a short (barely three minutes) interview with the producer, and while he mentions one or two interesting things (such as this was the first Japanese animated film to use computer graphics) it was really a waste.
The effect of Golgo is that similar far reaching effect that Star Wars and Indiana Jones had on their respective genres.

Wray retired from acting during most of the 1940s, but returned a decade later as a serious character actor, appearing in such major studio films as Queen Bee (1955) and Crime of Passion (1957).

The film's ground-breaking special effects and archetypal appeal have influenced generations of filmmakers and audiences, and King Kong is now rivaled only by Godzilla for the title of world's most popular giant monster.

 movie review expecting (2003)
We’re supposed to identify with Stephanie, and Day does everything to tilt the film in her favour, but it’s hard to sympathize with a woman whose desire to play queen bee presumes so much on her friends and family.
As played by Valerie Buhagiar, Stephanie is introduced as the sort of earthy, natural person we’re meant to trust implicitly, especially when she’s contrasted with her uptight, childless, control freak older sister Anita (Deb McGrath).
At the center is Stephanie, a very pregnant “performance artist” of the rather retro sort beloved by movies, whose briefly-glimpsed art involves drums, pseudo-tribal costumes and bare breasts.
