Oh my word, that movie. I'm trying to pick my favourite part but I'm torn between when Shatner threw the kid into the pile of spiders, when Shatner opened a hatch full of spiders onto some poor woman's head, or the sad trombone. By the by, don't watch this if you actually like spiders, since they clearly killed hundreds in the making of that awful movie.

Y'know, after the pure weapons-grade insanity that was The Apple, the idiocy of Kingdom of the Spiders was a breath of fresh, familiar air.

Jesus gently caress, how many tarantulas did they actually kill in this movie? That was absolutely absurd. I know it's the '70s and super low budget but you'd think to have that many tarantulas on set they'd have to have some kind of professionals there too.

They apparently just paid $10 a spider to anyone who brought them a tarantula. This movie took FOREVER to get going, didn't it? So much setup for relatively little pay-off.

It'll bother you if you're a spider lover. They do things like have a bunch of spiders all over the ground and then just have someone drive right through the middle of them- You can see the wheels going over a few. They make a couple of riffs about it, you'd have thought there'd be some sort of law against killing a bunch of animals for a film, but apparently not if they're gross spiders.

The thing is they're using tons of real tarantulas when there was no need. Like the driving scene through the town. The cuts are so fast that you could have done that whole thing with rubber tarantulas. Yet everyone is covered in real ones. Or the aforementioned scene where it runs over some. There's no reason you couldn't have just peppered the ground with rubber ones. Most of them weren't moving anyway. It's just really stupid.

I'm pretty sure bugs aren't covered by the "no animals were harmed" thing at the end of movies. And I don't give a drat about spiders, but still, that is absolutely insane that they'd kill them for a lovely movie.

They are covered, it just didn't exist yet. quote:The AHA has a standard of animal care as outlined in the Guidelines for the Safe Use of Animals in Filmed Media, which they established in 1988. It covers both large animals, as well as fish, insects, birds, reptiles, and any other living creature.

I love that one. The sheer insanity once the sirens begin, the way the bunny nearly goddamn runs over the dog and kills it, the way they didn't dub the kids at the end so they're just silently screaming along with the siren.. Magical.

There's a thread on MetaFilter about "Shake Hands With Danger." The best part is that the user 1f2frfbf found the booklet that was distributed with the film and scanned it into Flickr. The illustrations are quite good! Bun dun dow dowdow dow.

There is a new VoD up for Psycho 2, the unnecessary sequel to the classic. Can't view the preview because for the past week the videos on the site just don't play and give me a error.

I just finished "The Apple" and I have to say that it stars the most Un-Satan Satan I've ever seen in any media ever.  I mean his most evil acts include 'cheating at a contest' and 'forcing people to wear hologram stickers'.

Psycho 2 was pretty great. I looked at my VOD library on the rifftrax site and am quite surprised I've blown over 300 on VOD's at this point. Not counting all the riffs as well.

Did you all like the Lord of the Rings trilogy Rifftrax? I usually don't like to watch Rifftrax of movies I like, but I think after trying to watch the trilogy recently my rose tinted glasses are off and they deserve a rifftrax track.
