Title: Campy creature B movie
Product review: With respect to other reviews it should be noted that this film is very cheesy. It bills itself as a Terrifying Thriller Horror but I can only think of one shot in the film intended to scare. It plays more like a long episode of the Monsters! television show. The plot is a mix of the Jeff Goldblum "The Fly" and the spiderman comic books.There were parts where the execution was fun and interesting but more often than not I felt I had seen it all before ... in better movies. I had hopes for Akroyd due to his work in previous Horror/Comedies and even a few dramatic performances. Unfortunately, he and all the other actors play it for high drama. Also, the title "Earth vs. the Spider" is a misnomer as Earth for the most part never knows there even is a spider. The film focuses on four or five people and all the rest are just bit parts.
