ARACHNAPHOBIA - * *

A FAIRLY GOOD MOVIE THAT IS SOMEWHAT SUSPENSEFUL BUT IS ALSO SOMEWHAT BORING IN SOME AREAS OF THE FILM BUT I DO RECOMMEND IT TO ALL HORROR FREAKS BECAUSE THEY WILL PROBABLY LIKE THIS ONE.

One of my personal favorites. Both scary and funny. It left
my skin crawling and although i didnt get arachnophobia from
this movie, after watching it, the first time i ever saw it,
I felt very uncomfortable around spiders for quite some
time. That makes it one of the only movies that had that
kind of effect on me. Jeff Daniels best.

This dramatic comedy is a chilling look at the story of a
deadly jungle spider that comes to America, and the
challenge that a young "phobic" doctor has in overcoming
his fear of spiders. The young country doctor also faces
the challenge of solving the towns mysterious deaths.
There are many facetts to this movie, several interesting
story lines going on at once- this increases the pace and
the interest level for any discerning movie goer. A top
notch film for any lover of a good scary story, mixed with
good acting, a few laughs, and marvelous special effects,
and a FABULOUS ending. What a wild ride! In essence
it's good clean family entertainment that can be enjoyed
without regrets. Just a WARNING- if you aren't already
afraid of spiders, you may be after watching this film. If
you are afraid of spiders think twice before renting this
chiller. Not recommended for children under 10 or 12.

A great movie, scary and extremely exciting. Makes you
having goose-pimples during the whole time and looking
under you bed before going to sleep. Perfect amusement,
especially for people with "ARACHNOPHOBIA"...

This movie was ok. Not the greatest. Some boring parts,
suspenseful and somewhat horrorish, i guess. I do recommend
it though. It's an ok movie.
