Business at the Danasco Typing Company is looking up when mad scientist Dr. Charles Metzenbeamer successfully genetically mutates a human being with a worker bee, therefore creating the perfect employee for Danasco – an employee who toils endlessly and asks no questions.

It works, nobody notices that Mr. Hives has an enormous bee head or is chained down to his desk to keep him from attacking everyone in the office.

But curiosity turns to obsession and Stacey finds herself neglecting her long-time boyfriend, Joe, to come face to face with a killer monstrosity
