    Fun fact: in general tarantulas are quite gentle and easy to handle. They may byte only in stressful situations like being cornered and usually are "dry" bytes, they hurt a bit but don't inject venom. Even if they do inject venom, it is not very effective in humans so the chances of a tarantula harming someone is meager.

    Even though Tarantula is one of my favorite films from the 1950's, your commentary was hilarious and accurate. It pretty much doesn't pick up until the second half. It does have some really creepy scenes that are impressive for its time. Thanks for making this video, making Tarantula even more fun to watch.

  • @JeffreyDeCristofaro

    The effects were by Clifford Stine, who also worked on other 50's sci-fi gems like THIS ISLAND EARTH, THE DEADLY MANTIS, THE MONOLITH MONSTERS and other movies for Universal from this period, and did additional effects work on SPARTACUS. TARANTULA, for me at least, is one of the better ones to come from this period, and it's no understatement considering it came after THEM! from the previous year.

    It's been two years, maybe it's time to complete the Mara Corday monster-trifecta with "The Black Scorpion'? Just like in "The Giant Claw" and "Tarantula," lovely Mara is doin' it for herself in a man's world, but still needs a man to pick her up and dust her off when she falls (Richard Denning filling in for Agar but without Agar's smarm). The effects are more ambitious--and uneven--than "Tarantula," and far superior to "Claw. Plus this one has what the others don't: the Annoying Little Boy Who Gets Into Danger Constantly!! Juanito packs more irritation than every Japanese kaiju brat combined! Otherwise, it's boilerplate '50s monster mash, featuring elements we've seen before in everything from "Them!" to "The Deadly Mantis."

    No, I have to disagree with this one. This movie was actually really good for it's time. The way they used a real tarantula and actually made it look like it was interacting with the environment was amazing back then. I saw it when I was young and was so amazed. It looks more real still today than any of the CGI giant spiders these days. This movie is a classic and a legend.

    You know i would love it if the monsterverse did a kaiju file channel speaking of cases of creatures they learned on and the species kinda like with scps but all of them are mostly demigod level aka megaspiecies remember titanus is for specimen who can change the environment not because of size then the correct term gigantinus (the gigants from greek mythology which becaus of the misunderstanding people thing titans were big in mythology)

      In Western Washington State, we have some wolf spiders, but the largest spider in this area is simply called the "giant European House Spider"....not native to this area, but they hitched a ride from Sweden/Norway on boats, perhaps 100 years ago...they have bodies that can get to nearly an inch long, and their legs, diagonally, can measure 3 to 4 inches tip to tip!,,,and they are the fastest moving spiders of all...nearly 2 feet per second...so you gotta move quick if you wanna swat one of these ugly creatures...but they are not aggressive, and actually cannot bite a human, as their mandibles are very tiny...still, very creepy to see one of these crawling up the wall!

    I completely understand why you make fun of these 50's horror and Sci Fi movies. But I still get a little twitchy when you jab at the movies that I cut my teeth on back in the day and completely mesmerized me in the theaters on Saturday afternoons. Oh and BTW I second the request from A tree House In Hiding about doing a review of THEM on of my favs from the day. I must be a masochist. But your reviews are funny and entertaining.

      And....going back into the early 1950s, he played an old dude named Topper, who is haunted, in a friendly way, by a young couple (Jan and Robert Sterling, a married couple of actors, in real life), who were sort of like an older version of Ken and Barbie--Jan was beautiful!...and they even had a ghost dog with them, that loved to drink Topper's martini when being invisible!...pretty stupid stuff, but that is what passed for TV comedy back then.
