Review of Arachnophobia

10 years, 2 months ago at Feb 15 6:53
The title should be a hint, but if spiders give you the willies, Arachnophobia will be your own personal horror show. The icky factor is dialed to a 10, providing some effective moments of skin-crawling. In other words, Arachnophobia is a deliciously fun ride, with genuine thrills and legitimate laughs.

The amusingly self-aware plot is that by unfortunate chance, a deadly Venezuel... read more

Ever since I was a kid, I was quite curious to see this flick and, eventually, it took me more than 2 decades to finally watch it. Well, the damned thing with such an awesome title and really neat concept really had some potential and it could have been such a terrifying horror flick. Unfortunately, they decided to turn it into a typical Spielbergian cheesy feature which was rather disappointing. ... read more

"Re-watch - Sept. 19th I wanted the kiddo to watch Arachnophobia with me, and we had a good time with it. Last time I watched it I had some issues with it, but this time around I was able to just settle in and enjoy it for what it is. It's not great, but I bet I'll watch it a few more times in the years ahead."

Well, the damned thing with such an awesome title and really neat concept really had some potential and it could have been such a terrifying horror flick. Unfortunately, they decided to turn it into a typical Spielbergian cheesy feature which was rather disappointing. Indeed, it was really neat that the main character was an actual arachnophobe and, with this guy facing some ugly horrifying lethal spiders, it could have been a psychological nightmare but the guy got over his phobia way too easily to become suddenly your average boring hero. Apparently, Frank Marshall afterwards has said something like "People like to be scared but laughing, like a roller coaste” read more
