No funciona como terror puro, incluso si eres aracnofóbico. Sin embargo, es muy buena como parodia de las películas de terror de monstruos. Probablemente nunca olvidaré la frase «¡La tarántula pisoteó mi caravana!».

I HATE SPIDERS! Seriously, I can't see, hear, just anything (including Spiderman) involving those eight-legged bastards. I didn't mind them here, though, because fear is the last thing that you will find in Eight Legged Freaks. The whole film is about exaggeration, action, more or less good digital effects... And that was fine with me. Undemanding fun with likeable actors and a good Ottman.

A nice silly reference to old monster movies. You can't help but smile with them and with this film. The spiders respond to human calls ("Hey, Spidey!"), spit and make mewing noises after biting into a stuffed deer trophy. The whole film is permeated with great exaggeration, deliberate B-movie stylization and its parodic mood is illustrated by the exuberant "Elfman" music and a few small references to classic horror B-movies. And that one scene with the TV on, with the footage from Them! during a Monster-Movie Marathon is such a nice little reminder from the director that fans of the old B-movie sci-fi films will find it a treat :)

It wasn't bad, but as a horror movie (which it shouldn't have been) it wasn't scary enough and as a comedy it wasn't funny enough. But overall, I found it "not stupid enough". Still, it's watchable and pretty cool entertainment, but I was expecting something a little different, maybe a little more wacky.

A perfect combination of the poetics of "1950s" monster movies with the stupid aesthetics of German-American co-productions. Though it doesn't always work, Eight Legged Freaks artfully combines homage with parody, capturing the audience’s heart with perfect characters, a lethal dose of clichés and, most importantly, grinning spiders that are a joy to behold, especially when the special effects artists gave them a nice "look." Emmerich and Devlin didn't make a lot of money from it but I want to thank them for the desire to release this into the world.
