    [Highly rated reviewer]

    WHAT A TERRIFIC FILM IN HISTORIC 50's BW, HEARD ABOUT IT YEARS AGO AND IT HAS STILL ACHIEVED A 5 STAR STAR STATUS TODAY. AN OLD B MOVIE, A GREAT UNIVERSAL FILM DIRECTED BY JACK ARNOLD OF THE CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON FAME.

    SUPERB DIRECTION AND CLASSIC B MOVIE ACTING

    IF YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS FILM, RENT IT ASAP - BRINGS THE CINEMA HOME FROM YOUR CHILDHOOD.

    No fancy special effects, just a real spider eating real people

    a B-Movie classic

  • Classic 50s B movie SF

    Rated - 4.0 stars  
    By a customer from Birmingham, UK , 17 May 2007
    Above average B movie flic featuring veteran B movie actor John Agar, one time husband of Shirley Temple. For a low budget effort the special effects are surprisingly well done, and it is always great to see all those old classic cars you get in these films!

  • Truly amazing

    Rated - 5.0 stars

    well I haven't seen it yet... just ordered it. But I hear there's a giant tarantula attacking Arizona and a young Clint Eastwood decides to blow it up with some napalm. Cool. If you want to see Arizona being attacked by stranger things about ten years later, check out 'Night of the Lepus'.
