Spidarlings

I just finished viewing this movie, and I can't be more grateful that Ken Russell died before being associated with this hot dump!!

I mean, it is not that bad of a movie (well, yes, it is bad, bit not THAT bad!). But it is so not on par with movies from K Russell that it would have been a real embarassement if he had end up being associated in anyway with this movie. His work is so much more beyond the juvenile "message" of this movie that it would have gone out as either was owning $$ to the director of this dump, or he would have lost hit mind.

It is so much better that we don't have to try and decide. Th king is dead, and peons keeps on trying to honour him....

So far, for the worse only....

After 6 years in the making, Salem Kapsaski has finally been able to see his vision come to fruition, and it's been worth the wait! This punk rock LGBTQ horror musical has been the refreshing jaunt I've been yearning for in the horror genre. From the vibrant use of colors, musical numbers you'll be singing to yourself long after the movie is over, hottest spider sex scene you'll ever see, to the graphic kill scenes that will make you celibate! Even Uncle Lloyd puts the Troma stamp of approval on it! I can't wait to see more from Apres Vague Productions!

A bizarre punk rock fairy tale filled with catchy songs, great one liners and a twisted sense of humour that packs a punch, makes a statement and entertains along the way. Eden and Matilda are a lesbian punk couple living in Essex, they are two years behind with their rent and their landlord is losing his patience. To get out of their dire situation Matilda starts working in a night club in Soho called "Juicy girls" were all the girls slowly fall prey to a serial killer. Eventually the couple come across some money but instead of paying their rent they buy a pet tarantula which results in even more problems and leads to a bloody body horror finale. Spidarlings is anarchic Troma cabaret with acid fuelled animation sequences that is progressive and gender inclusive while still cleverly pocking fun at pc culture. Loved this movie! A real gem.

From the zany 80's animated start titles (best I have ever seen) to the spider infested climax this was one wild ride! With a Troma release you never know what you get but Spidarlings exceeded all expectations. If you are into Spider terror, B Movies, drag queens, pop punk and campy gore this is your film! What makes it stand out is it's twisted humour and catchy songs! It made me laugh out loud at points or made me wanna break out into dance at others. It also had enough horror elements and blood to keep the horrorhound in me satisfied!Good to see practical FX instead of CGI nonsense. The animation was also really cool! A must for Troma fans and not only, this film has something everyone must like! Highly recommended!

It is hard to imagine that anyone on Earth could believe that this movie is even marginally good. It's not. It stinks to high heavens.

The direction is quite simply HORRIBLE. It's disjointed, choppy and just plain amateurish. Not really sure how the director got the OK to helm this train wreck.

The acting is non-existent. Literally. Half the time I had no idea what was going on because the acting was so poor and the writing even poorer.

Not really sure this is actually a Troma movie. Oftentimes they buy the rights to already made bombs and release them on video to make a few bucks off them. And this movie has all the bells and whistles to one of those doosies.
