The horror genre obviously hasn’t had enough movies about bees. You’d think Candyman would have started a trend (and The Nest seems to have picked the right year to be released if the Candyman remake ever appears!) but there has been little since. There were a few sci-fi giant killer bee types before the 90s and a few SyFy giant killer bee types after the 90s, as well as the surprisingly great Stung in 2015 but I was happy to see The Nest appear.
I will say from the outset, don’t go expecting a killer bee movie. It can be debated whether the creatures here are bees at all but they share plenty of similarities so I’m going with it.

The Nest: "Genre icon Dee Wallace is “truly memorable” (Horror Obsessive) in The Nest, premiering on Digital, DVD and On Demand July 20 from 4DigitalMedia.
When Meg and her mother Beth visit a yard sale, Beth buys her young daughter an adorable stuffed bear, thinking it may help with Meg’s separation anxiety. As children do, she quickly becomes attached to the bear, talking to it and taking it everywhere she goes. However, soon Beth notices that the bear is communicating with Meg and even influencing her behavior. When Meg starts developing hoarding habits, and seems infected by a parasitic creature, things take a turn for the worse. Soon it’s clear there’s something much more nightmarish and sinister to this yard sale toy than anyone could have imagined.
Directed by James Suttles and written by Jennifer Trudrung, The Nest “will keep those nerves on the very edge” (From Page 2 Screen).

"I had a bear just like him when I was your age." 4Digital Media has released an official trailer for an indie horror thriller titled The Nest, not to be confused with the Jude Law drama from last year also titled The Nest. This one (formerly known as The Bewailing) is about an adorable stuffed bear that's "infected by a parasitic creature." A mother's reality erodes around her as she struggles to fathom the entangled web of her daughter's separation anxiety brought on by parasitic creatures within a stuffed bear they found at a yard sale. The horror film stars the director's daughter Maple Suttles as Meg, Dee Wallace, Sarah Navratil, Kevin Patrick Murphy, Drez Ryan, Blaque Fowler, and Anna Lynn Holleman. The bugs inside this bear are disgusting, so creepy my goodness. Does anyone want a stuffed bear anymore after watching this?! Here's the official trailer (+ poster) for James Suttles' The Nest,...
