Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

Juana what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

Kimball Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Diane Ruth A truly extraordinary science fiction/horror film that manages to be an intelligent depiction of perverted science as well as a unique tale of survival. From the very initial scenes, there is an overwhelming sense of terror as a couple stranded at sea are picked up by a mysterious freighter. Immediately treated by the ship's doctor, the couple immediately can tell there is something seriously wrong. The doctor is clearly mad and the experiments he's conducting are beyond all imagination. Richard Moll is stunning in the role of the doctor and it's one of his best roles in years. As the horror unfolds within the confines of a ship at sea, the claustrophobic environment is almost unendurable and the intensity of the thrills simply become too much to bear. This is a terrific film of this type and one of the finest Killer Spider motion pictures ever made.

dereksimms I have seen some stupid things before but this is the most god awful thing I saw. From a person who hates spiders this was pretty horrible. The acting was terrible and had no clue what to do. There is some things that were good like the first ten minutes when there was a fight seen on the boat which had nothing to do with the movie. One thing that really killed the movie was the director Sam Firstenberg. Probley the only thing he did right was have Shephaine Niznik which is why I even watch the movie. Why do you even have a movie with spiders that don't even show towards the end for gods sake. If you make a movie which has spiders at least put them in the movie. So friends don't waste your time Even if the Red Sox are losing to the Yankees don't watch this piece of crap.

Mikew3001 OK, there are some mad scientists entering a ship and forcing the crew and some more good scientists to experiment with spiders until they become large, blown-up rubber monsters running amok and diminishing the crew one by one until the final showdown.What could have been a horror classic in 1931 and a trash pearl in 1961 is just a joke in 2001. You wonder how producers can do such a movie in this decade... I really like all kind of trash movies like this, but the story is to thin, the acting just wooden, with only non-screaming heroine Stephanie Niznik showing some acting abilities and sex appeal, and a really dull direction.The worst of this movie with the great title "Spiders 2" (where have been the first spiders?) is the lack of special effect. While it's rather easy to produce great special effect with today's computer technology, you can see very special effects that where found somewhere beyond the sea probably... a stupidly looking rubber spider that has already been fighting against your Action Man figures back in the seventies, enlarged and dubbed over some ocean pictures... nonsense explosions, unrealistic and really stupid stunts, and smaller or bigger plastic spiders being dragged and pushed all around the burning ship.You wonder if the actors and crew were on dope all the time, or if they had great fun and a big laugh doing this picture... this could be a logical explanation for this baddie that otherwise has no real reason to exist, except if you're looking for another cheap movie for a retro trash film night with your friends a some cans of lager beer, next to, let's say, Van Damme's "The Order" and "Maura's Sexual Fantasies"... in fact, all these three movies were running on German TV last weekend. Have fun!

crusader_79 I have seen a lot of bad movies in my life but i just watched this on Pay Per View and it was bad. The story had holes everywhere. All of a sudden the spiders move very very very slowly then it later on can run really really fast. The writing was terrible. It had lines in it that were not necessary at all. That acting was of very poor quality. HOW DO THESE PEOPLE GET WORK!?!?!?! It burns me to see the people who wake up one morning and decide they want to be actors without having any training whatsoever. The guy has a spider in his gut and he says just leave me here. Or he says No I'll be okay. The giant spider at the end I have some questions about. HOW IN THE BLOODY HELL DID IT GET SO BIG?!?!?! And if it was that big how did it manage to get to the top deck? Secondly when they say that they are digesting their first meal........Spiders digest on the outside. They don't digest on the inside. If it were possible I would give this movie a -10 rating and the writer should be shot. And the director should be shot for considering making this movie.
