THE DOUBLEMINT TWINS,
By
This review is from: Arachnia (DVD)
At one point in this spoof reminiscent of the b-movies of the fifties, the lascivious professor calls his two bimbo students The Doublemint Twins. These two (played with horrible abandon by Bevin McGraw and some unnamed starlet) are a hoot to watch, they are definitely el stupido. (Their lesbian scene is unnecessary, but not surprising!). The spider monsters are fine, when viewed from a distance; only when there are close-ups are they obviously fake! But Rob Monokiewicz as the studly hero is fun to watch; he looks like a law student, but his quiet understated performance should have gotten him more roles. Irene Joseph as the professor's assistant is pretty fun, too. Dan Merriman as Deke is awful, but not to the point of absurdity. Brett Piper directs with his tongue in his cheek, and ARACHNIA, though not a classic, is a fun time passer.

Giant Spider-Monsters,
By
This review is from: Arachnia (DVD)
During a meteor storm, a large meteor explodes on a mountainside and opens a system of caves. The explosion also causes the crash of a small airplane carrying an archeologist and some of his students.It is cold and dark and they are far from any sign of civilization but get lucky when they find an abandoned shack. Huddling in the shack leads to a gratuitous bath scene and then introduces a new character; an old man who owns the shack. He takes the survivors back to his house and they make the discovery of the giant arachnids (but not until after a gratuitous lesbian scene). The spider-like monsters need to be stopped. The are social creatures and not loners like true spiders. In the end things work out in a fashion as these movies usually do. The acting is not as bad as others have said, but it would have been nice if the casts "beauty" was actually pretty. The old man is a hoot and the archeologist is fun to hate. The creature are done in a marvelous stop-motion style (with some full scale models) reminiscent of The Black Scorpion. The critters are good, ut the sets are obviously small models. Fun in the B-Movie style and sure to please fans of cheesy movies. A body ripped apart and plentiful nudity make this one unsuitable for some.
