a large percentage of mankind be afraid of animal like snake and spider . in the fifty horror movie always contain giant insect and probably because the creator think this be the best way to scare the audience . but time have change and so have people . we aren not afraid of giant insect on the silver screen anymore . that why i think the genre be already long death and but apparently i be wrong . spider get bad review and i really do not know what make me watch this movie anyway . it be probably the fact that i want to have a good laugh . that right represent a good laugh and because the spider in this movie be so huge that it make you forget that you should be scar . i be sure that even people with arachnophobia wouldn not be terrify . the most frightening thing about this movie be perhaps the lack of a good story . a young female student be interested in ufo and et and write article about it in the local college paper . she have do a lot of research and she have find a secret site call area 21 where the government be do all kind of secret stuff ( no and i be not make this up ) . it appear to be a site where scientist be experiment with insert the dna of alien into spider to make giant killer . in the beginning and the movie look promising ( when the spider be still small ) and but a it progress it get bad and bad . it just a mix up of different story which we all know all to well . take scene from arachnophobia and tick and alien and even king kong together with some episode from the x file and you know what you can expect . well no and because than it might still have be quite good and but the director make such a big mess out of it and that you can only laugh . my advise to everybody represent do not rent or buy it and but watch it when it be show on television . it like a fifty horror movie and but than in color and there aren not many comedy that make you laugh more than this horror movie . i give it a negative .
