Arachnophobia (1990)
6/10
Not as I Recalled
30 September 2017
A species of South American killer spider hitches a lift to the United States in a coffin and starts to breed and kill.

This film came out when I was young, so I probably first saw it when I was 10 or 12. And I recall it being pretty funny. Watching it now (2017), it does not have the humor I recall. Even John Goodman seems to come up short.

Now, if anything, it should be better than I remembered because Julian Sands is in it, as well as Jeff Daniels. Names and faces I love but would not have known about as a kid. How did this film age so poorly.... or did I just enter it in the wrong frame of mind?
