Trash from 70s

If I wasn't a fan of horror movies, I wouldn't have watched this. Sometimes there are is a real gem between all the other B-productions. There can be a real good horror movie for less than 1 million bucks and there also can be a real funny trashy, if the production is not ment to be serious. It's like jamming musicians. They jam together to be creative, have fun and are not so serious about it. Same deal or these kinds of trashies. They can be funny as long as they're not meant serious and put some fun into it. This movie is obviously cheap produced, but the production design apears to be ment too serious for a real trashy. And it looks real cheap. The legs of the spider look like big tampers. Only by that look, all seriousness of threatening situation is gone. The dialogues are weak, The camera work is third rate, the story is garbage. Don't watch it, it's only stolen time, except you want to snooze a bit.

One of ' The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made'

A very low-budget horror movie (it was shot in six weeks with a budget of $300,000), about a horde of radioactive mutant spiders with a craving for human flesh emerging from the depths of the earth to invade a rural Wisconsin town after a black hole opens up another dimension. Featuring awful special effects, just the one giant spider (which was constructed by covering a Volkswagen automobile with artificial black fur, with the fake legs operated from the inside by seven members of the crew), and a cast made up of a lot of "has-beens," and B movie veterans, it's tacky as hell but a lot of laughs as the spiders go on the rampage at the towns summer fair. The film received a considerable theatrical run and became one of the 50 top-grossing films of that year, even featuring in an episode of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Listed as one of 'The 100 Most Enjoyably Bad Movies Ever Made' by Golden Raspberry Award founder John Wilson in the book The Official Razzie Movie Guide.
