In the Spider's Web.

[Jaqhama]

In The Spider's Web... ...oh boy...don't watch this one if you're arachnidphobic.

Lin and I love our pulpy B grade movies and this one did not let us down.

A small group of people have (for some reason that eluded us) decided that the steamy and stinking hot humid jungles of India is a great place for a vacation.

One of the women gets bitten by a particularly venomous spider...no shit...worse spider bite I've ever seen...and I've been bitten a dozen times by spiders myself.
(Happens here in Oz. )

So anyway...off the group goes to a village where they worship the little critters and find Lance Hendrickson as a half demented Doctor, doing experiments with spiders.
Lance, despite being short of a quid and thus taking on this movie for next to nowt (one assumes) plays his role with his normal deadpan serious face and demeanour.

Things go from bad to worse when Lance takes charge of the wounded woman.

Lots of screaming by the two flat chested younger women.
(I only mention the flat chestedness because normally these low budget flicks have large breasted women in them.)

Lots of dithering by the male spiderbaits. Err, secondary actors.

The guy who steals the show is the fat, local Indian police officer. He was great.

Lots and lots and lots of spiders.
Spiders being eaten, spiders crawling in and out of people's mouths.
Spiders crawling all over everyone.
Made Lin's skin crawl.

I won't spoil the plot...such as it is...but will assure you that's it's a perfect example of B grade movie horror and schlock and lovers of such rubbish shouldn't miss it.

Cheers: Jaq.
