With Benni Diez's creature feature now wrapped up, we thought we would share some new images from the set of the film because why the hell not? Everything we've seen from STUNG so far—including the set of pics below—give off a glorious B-movie vibe and it looks cool as hell. I'm getting the feeling that STUNG and SLITHER would go quite well together as a double bill, but that's something time will have to tell us! For now, though, we've got these blood covered pictures to drool over, which is good enough I suppose.
And just in case you're out of the loop on STUNG, a while back director Benni Diez shot a proof of concept video and it's well worth your time and a fantastic little taste of what to expect from the feature film.
Mrs. Perch, an elderly, wealthy lady from rural America, is throwing a fancy garden party at her remote country villa. Same procedure as every year – except this time her illegally imported plant fertilizer seeps into the ground. Subsequently, a local species of killer wasps that usually lay their eggs into other insects mutates into 7 ft tall predators. And the celebrating upper class company provides just the right kind of prey. It's up to Paul and Julia, the two catering staffers, to stop the creatures, fight for their lives, and incidentally getting their stumbling romance in order.
STUNG stars Peter Stormare, Lance Henriksen, Clifton Collins, Jessica Cook and Matt O'Leary.
