The reviewers who liked this can't possibly be serious! "Kingdom of the Spiders" isn't one bit scary or interesting. Shatner overacts grossly as usual, when he remembers to act at all. It isn't convincing - I don't care how many there are, the spiders simply couldn't kill that many people without their victims' cooperation (by standing still or letting them crawl all over them). And I don't understand what people are talking about in referring to the film's special effects - it has none, except for a few matte paintings. The ending isn't surprising or inventive in the least; I saw it coming a good twenty minutes before the end. People who've been attributing a "message" to this dungheap seem to forget that the only way "Kingdom of the Spiders" could have any message is by ripping off better films made years before.
