A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

But I wasn't disappointed because it was a bad movie, which it was. I was expecting a lot worse, and I didn't get it. I enjoy watching movies that are so pathetic that you can only laugh at them. I watched this movie because the girl from Troll 2 is in it, although she has like one line (and no dance moves - shame).The story is recycled garbage (secret scientific experiments, regular creature gets mutated, the head scientist wants them 'captured' but they really just need to die, etc). The acting is atrocious, however the look of fright on most of the characters was believable. Sadly, the spiders did look pretty 'gnarly' for poorly done CGI, and for that level of adequacy alone I am disappointed. There are scares and tension, which is well done considering the entire movie took place during the day. Ever notice that things are scarier at night? The props were pretty good, like the webs and the dead carcasses and the spider in the box.In conclusion: it didn't completely fail, so I'm disappointed. I give it 7 stars, and that in my books is an insult. If you want to please me and get my coveted one-star rating, aim a lot lower next time.

OK, So while working on a really long, boring History Project, I decided either listen to music that I've heard over and over again, sit in silence, or, watch the next SciFi movie coming on. Being the SciFi nut I am, I went for the movie.I really didn't expect much, by reading the movie description, however, they could have went further, and done much better with this movie. The characters absolutely sucked, I must admit, which, I think had some effect over the story line, which, with better acting, would have been a lot better.But, for a movie that I just "listened too", it wasn't complete, utter, garbage, hence why I gave it a 3. With better acting, it might have gotten a 5. So, if you need something to help waste your already wasted time, or, if you are say, sick with the flu, go ahead, have a laugh; as, if you watch this movie, I guarantee you'll laugh at a few scenes, though mostly out of mere stupidity.

I still can not believe I sat and wasted an hour and a half of my time to actually sit through this awful movie. What a waste of time. Bad acting, bad cg, this movie reminds me of a class project for the AV club. The scene with the two hunters at the very beginning should have tipped me off. It was more than predictable. Two buddies hunting, they spot the trophy-to-be, one sees the giant spider, and they run around screaming. While one of them tries to kill the spider with a cross bow. Then there was the little fact that they've designed the spider to have two eyes. Forgive me for paying attention in school, but I'm pretty sure most species of spiders have 8 eyes. If you chose to sit through this one, more power to you. Good luck making it to the credits.

Sometimes movies are made to cater to a certain audience. This movie aimed to please burnt out ski bums. The CG was atrocious, the acting was worse. That being said, there were parts of the movie that I had to rewind and watch again, not because it was good but because truly bad movies are funny in their own sad way. The best part of this film was the short but true commentary on pushy ski instructors, (Takes place in the first fifteen minutes or so) Don't watch this if you want gore. Don't watch this if you want suspense. And definitely don't watch this if you like movies like arachnophobia, you will be completely disgusted, and not in a good way. My girlfriend hates spiders, emphasis on hates. She bravely watched the opening five minutes of the film and found She wasn't once scared or creeped out. She finished the film and I quote, "What the hell was that?" A must see for any person who enjoys bad flicks.
