  • Welcome to our first time watching Arachnophobia (1990).
    This is an excellent film! Very well paced and the perfect scare family film. Written by Don Jakoby and Wesley Strick, starring Jeff Daniels, Julian Sands, John Goodman and Harley Jane Kozak. Directed by Frank Marshall, and produced by Steven Spielberg and Kathleen Kennedy.
    Great film! The script is good and the production is outstanding. How they wrangled those spiders is awe-inspiring. It made us jump and itchy! Hope you enjoy our reactions, commentary and discussion as we watch it for the first time from two different generations. It stands up very well for a film made 35 years ago.

    We hope you enjoy this Reaction Video. It’s a very strong film. Ideal for that family, jumpy-scare vibe. It certainly is more suspenseful if you have a phobia of spiders like Dad! It's very well made, masterful cinematography, direction, writing, sound and performances. We hope you enjoy our reactions where Dad hates spiders and Son loves them!

      😀👍 A movie you two DEFINITELY have to watch is the original "Jumanji" (1995). It's got everything! Giant spiders. 🕷 Giant mosquitos. 🦟 A giant crocodile. 🐊 An angry lion. 🦁 A throng of out-of-control monkeys. 🐒 Stampeding elephants, rhinos and zebras. 🐘🦏🦓 Even some killer shrubbery. 🌳 And as a bonus, Kirsten Dunst when she was roughly about the same age as you (the son).

    I don't know if I saw this at the movies or at home on video. But it's a 90s classic, no doubt. The soundtrack came out on the same day as the movie. The song at the end is called Don't Bug Me by the late great Jimmy Buffet. There's another song on the soundtrack called Blue Eyes Are Sensitive to the Light by Sara Hickman. I remember hearing the song on the radio. I don't know what number it hit in the Billboard charts. It is a great song, and that's the one I remember the most. It's one of the songs that people would not remember. It's a forgotten song.

    Fun fact: the small “hybrid” spiders later in the film are real (not venomous). An animal handler used various techniques to humanely redirect them. They even made a special boot for John Goodman to wear so that it wouldn’t actually squish the “actors”.

    "That's right. I'm bad."
    Fun Fact: The title of the movie refers to the fear of spiders as Arachno means spider in Greek and Phobia means fear.
    Movie Magic Fact: The animatronic General Spider seen at the film's climax was one of the earliest prop jobs done by Jamie Hyneman, star and co-producer of MythBusters (2003). The dead animals seen on the spider's webs in various scenes, are all fake.
    Safety Guarantee Fact: The safety of the spiders were paramount throughout the entire production, so for one scene where McLintock (John Goodman) had to spray an arachnid with insecticide, then squash it with his boot, the production went to extreme measures: first, a dummy spider was sprayed. then Goodman donned special boots with a hollowed out sole for the squash shot, so that the spider would just curl up inside and wait for the next take. When dead spiders were needed, the filmmakers used bodies of arachnids that had died of natural causes.
    Spider Wrangler Fact: The small spiders used in the film were Avondale spiders (Delena Cancerides), a harmless species from New Zealand that were provided by Landcare Research in Auckland. Despite their fierce appearance, this spider is a docile member of the crab-spider family and is, in fact, harmless to humans. They were not allowed back in New Zealand for quarantine reasons. The giant "spider" used in the film was a species of a bird-eating tarantula, which can attain a legspan of eight inches or more. Those types of tarantulas are not easy to handle and can give a nasty bite. The spiders in the film were managed and handled by famed entomologist Steven R. Kutcher.

    First time watcher to your channel, and I can't stress enough how much I enjoyed this. Not only is your dynamic simultaneously entertaining and wholesome, it reminds me so much of when i was your son's age, and sharing classic movies like these with my dad, and having nearly identical discussions together before, during, and after. Those memories are among the fondest I have of my childhood with him, and its great to see a bit of that reflected here.
    Also, I can't recommend for you and your son enough, TREMORS! And Starship Troopers as well, although considering the themes and the over the top Verhovian violence/gore, you'd be forgiven if you waited a bit on that one; your call!

    As an Australian all I can say is, "Crikey, mate!" Considering the reliability and availability of anti-venom treatment I would much rather see a Sydney Funnel Web spider giving me a love bite than a Great White giving me a menacing glare. If a poisonous spider that hunts insects smaller than itself bites you then as a human if you put a pressure bandage on the wound you have about 12 hours to get yourself to a hospital. If a Great White bites your arm or leg then you have about 20 seconds to wonder about how strong the arterial pressure flow is before you lose consciousness.

    behind the scenes all the small spiders are real spiders except the ones that get killed are fake as well as both 2 Big Spiders the General and Queen are both animatronic spiders throughout the entire movie. Supposedly the General Spider was so real looking that Jeff Daniels had problems in Real Life shooting scenes as the Director and crew never told anyone on set that the Big ones were Fake, making Fear real on the set "smart choice as it delivers well on scene". Only small blooper is that Big Spider Webs are always built by smaller spiders as reason such a massive web is to catch more and feed which the webs are weaker as where a Larger spider will focus on a smaller Stronger Web for a Bigger catch.
    Fun Fact for you: Spiders don't kill anything twice their size for food unless they have to as food is short (given the webs with large catch prey isn't realistic) as they will defend their grounds at any means taking down large prey but only as straight on attack. Plus, all spiders have very poor eyesight, so for the little spiders seeing people and moving to their body language is purely fake non-sense. Now on the other hand Prey-mantis are known for taking down prey 3times there body size for food making them the strongest insects on the planet.
    One of the Deadliest Spider in the United States is the Black or Red Widow as it only takes 30secs for its poison to take effect, it is said a Black Widow can take down an adult elephant with one-bit Tell's you how strong the poison is.
    Didn't like John Goodman stepping on the spider do you know how many insects you step on a day in Real Life that you never think about, thousands!!!

After 10 minutes of it not moving i got down to discover it was a ball of fluff! Also the scene where the spiders are all over the ceiling and coming down on webs happened to me too! I ran out the house, walked to shops and got bug spray and had to go back in. Terrifying.

    Quickly a few more informations to the making of this movie: YES, they in fact use real spiders! A very special kind of species, very intelligent and as well fundamentally trainable, BUT not dangerous at all. One of many tricks the "animal-trainer" use to lead and control the spiders (single spiders as well as the whole bunch), for example when they should look or have to crawl in certain directions (for the camera) is the fact of using mobile hairdryers (with only very very light heat). For more, just have a look on RUclips... There are several documentaries to the making of THIS particular movie! // However: I LOVE this movie, even though my fear of spiders is as intense as YOURS, Mr. Dad! Moreover: Love it, watching with you... (and by the way: I'm from Germany ;-))
    Keep on sharing such wonderful moments. BEST WISHES TO YOU!

BUT (and these are very good news after all!) during the last months for the first time film scolars have stated that more and more of the younger generations are learning more and more to apreciate these "old" movies and their real views, handmade special effects as well as true and simply a fantastic story telling (Best example (and also highly recommended to you and your son!): The 1957 (!!) version of "12 angry men" (with Henry Fonda a. o.). // So in the (happy) end (of life), it suddenly seems really possible that the days of the so called CGI-Hype are someday finally counted...

      @@TheTrueRatPack I hope what you say is right. Take Star Wars for example, even as a child watching those originals, the fascination was in seeing the slight imperfections in the models of the spacecraft, and then appreciating the next shot where it was seamless etc. Thanks for the suggestion of 12 Angry Men, it's a good one. We plan a black and white film for Christmas time and very soon we will be doing our first very very old film by directly watching afterwards its modern remake. In this we will be looking at the similarities and differences and enjoying them.

    I can’t comfortably put my hand on a photo of a spider… and for some reason I saw this movie twice in the theater that summer. My fear of spiders has caused me to be much more informed of the few that can hurt me here in Los Angeles.

    The only bad thing about this channel is that the reaction ends and we have to wait for the next! Great movie education so far, keep it going 🙂
    Here's some suggestions for the future: 101 Dalmatians (Jeff Daniels); 102 Dalmatians; National Treasure 1 and 2; Free Willy; Kindergarten Cop; The guardian; The Mummy 1 and 2; Zorro 1 and 2; all Indiana Jones; True Lies; The Abyss; and many animations from disney/pixar/dreamworks are worth it too 🙂

    Until six years ago I was at least as afraid of spiders as you are. For some project I was involved in I had to research spiders, reading many articles and watching many videos featuring spiders. To my astonishment, by the time the research was over I was no longer afraid of spiders. Spiders are deaf, they have no ears, which explains why they might run towards you even though you're screaming at them. They're almost blind, seeing only light and dark, so that scene where the spider seems to watch Ross and Chris intently while they try to trick it in order to catch it in a glass is pure fiction. While I love this film (grew up watching it repeatedly), it's about as accurate about spider behaviour as Jaws is about shark behaviour.

    When I used to work at Blockbuster Video, people would often ask me to recommend "the scariest movie [we] carried"; they'd brag about watching Exorcist, or Friday the 13th, or Insidious, and how they weren't scared at all. They always looked confused when I walked them AWAY from the 'Horror' section, and over to 'Family/Adventure', and they're reactions were also always the same once I handed them the case for Arachnophobia, "Nope!", or "No-no-no-no-no-no-no!".
