Eight Legged Freaks

[Mothman]

Is this any good? My instincts say no, but I seem to remember someone telling me a while back that it was.

It’s on free to air on Friday night, I want to figure out if its worth setting the recorder for.

I own it on DVD... but then it does have Kari Wuhrer and a young Scarlett Johansson in it, so maybe that has something to do with it. ;)

But seriously. It's not too bad. It's one of those tongue in cheek monster movies that doesn't take itself seriously and is pretty fun to watch and have a laugh at. I enjoyed it.

Yah definitely good for a laugh. It's a modern classic in the B monster movie genre.

Incidentally, the first monster movie I think of in the "Doesn't take itself seriously and is pretty fun" category is Tremors. Gotta watch that again.

Loved Tremors. Do have to watch that again.

Yeah Flash, I did notice Scarlett was in it. Mmmm Scarlett ...

This is indeed a funny movie! I enjoy watching it every chance I get. Sadly, I do not own a copy, mostly because my wife hates/is afraid of spiders, and I'd be afraid she would burn it.

The spiders were awesome. It is a fun "B" movie with above average special effects and if you are a giant spider fan you will mine the movie for ideas for D&D.
What channel and time? I'd love to see it again.

When this movie first came out I was in France, where they were advertising it as "Arach Attack!" I wish they'd stuck with that name.

I’m in Australia FH, so channel and time probably won’t help you much (I think its on Sydney Channel 9, about 12.30 Friday night / Saturday morning for anyone local who might want to catch it).

Its worth a laugh. The spiders were interesting. They got a good scene with someone being woven into a silk ball for later drinking. Like Frodo.

Yep. Lots of fun in the vein of Tremors or Slither - although not as good as either of those flicks.
