JONA - Theres some decent comedy in here, but the movie is just a slog to watch through with the film being almost two hours long. Unfortunately, the spiders just did nothing for me.

Scarlet - Unlike some of the cheesy movies I ranked higher on this list, Arachnophobia is content to be a title-only project. Ive got an idea for a project, Frank. Oh yeah, what is it? I call it Arachnophobia. So a spider horror film? Whats it about? ... Arachnophobia. Yeah, whats it about? I dont know yet, but its such good shit, pal! In the late 80s and early 90s, Im fairly convinced that was the general pitch meeting in Hollywood.
Rating: 11/100


Snake - Why I Chose It - Arachnophobia is a cult film that is a send-up to classic b-movies, mainly from the 50s-70s. I wanted a movie on this list that really invoked what those films set out to accomplish. It was a moderate box office success, but is far more remembered by arachnophobes for being one of the biggest triggers out there.

My Thoughts - It's a crime how long this film is. With such a simple concept, this should be a very in-n-out affair, but instead it drags on and on with way too many characters and a weirdly over-complicated plot. Call me simple, but a movie called Arachnophobia should just be about spiders and not some weird Amazon undiscovered species that has the most convulted way of coming over to the US so the movie can start. However, I will admit to liking the use of the practical effects, John Goodman's character, and the pretty funny ending.

Inviso - John Goodman is the hero of this movie for obvious reasons. Fuck this movie. Thats all.
