“Something Very Hungry is About to Hatch!”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A student reporter pursues a space-programme conspiracy that has developed far too many legs. The plotting is pure pulp and the characters thin, but the practical spider transformations deliver the sort of ambitious grotesquerie that makes a creature shelf worth browsing.
