Eight Legged Freaks

This giant-spider flick just wants to be one big joke, which would be fine if it were funny. There are a few amusing bits, but the humor is mostly used as a form of self-defense: The filmmakers don’t want to make you laugh as much as they want to assure you that they’re not being serious. Starring David Arquette.
