external linkPretty dull starting and much too talky for its own good; this is a totally inane horror flick that's loaded with poor acting (especially Jose Sancho as the head doctor who's accent is thick enough and talks fast enough to make him hard to understand at times), mostly shoddy effects (though the spider does look okay at times) and the fact that it's so boring that even during the 'exciting' finale I was yawning. 0/4


external linkThis movie wreaked of lost ideas, and loopholes. The acting is sub par, the script is god awful, the things to actually like in this movie? 2/5

external linkDidn't expect much from this movie, so I wasn't surprised with the outcome. Some of the effects for the film wasn't bad and some was cheesy. ... Worth a rent if you're into cheesy killer spider flicks, but don't expect much. 4/10
