Source-Svengoolie airing
Back in the 70s it felt like every few weeks one of the 3 networks would air a new made for TV horror film. Some were great like Duel. Some were middle of the road. Then some were boring like today's movie.
We start off with Tom Atkins and Howard Hesseman are smuggling a large amount of coffee beans fro Ecuador. Yea not drugs these morons are smuggling coffee. And in those black market beans is a deadly bunch of banana spiders.
The plane crashes right outside the town of Finleyville CA. These spiders have a fast acting deadly venom. People all over town start dropping dead.
While this movie is only 100 minutes long it feels like it was 6 hours. Not sure if the print Sven showed was in bad shape, but the colors look faded. And if I didn't know better I would think this was filmed on an cheap early 90s camcorder.
At least Sven's bits were entertaining. But they weren't good enough for me to ever watch this movie ever again.
