Review of Big Ass Spider! (2013) by Marischa B — 18 Jan 2014

I wasn't expecting much of this movie. In fact, I was expecting it to suck big time, despite a few well-known names in the cast. However, as bad as the effects were, and as predictable as the plot was, it was saved entirely by the comedy buddy pairing of the exterminator and the security guard.

If it wasn't for that character dynamic, the movie would just be a mess. But the pair of them manage to hoist the film above the abyss of awfulness over which the rest of it teeters and give it some entertainment value.

Don't get me wrong, you won't watch this twice, but because of Grunberg and Boyar's double-act, the movie is a passable watch-once film.
