SPIDER IN THE ATTIC

Cinemavixion Review

In "Spider in the Attic," director Shannon Holiday crafts a chilling descent into arachnophobia, centered around a group of unsuspecting individuals who awaken a monstrous nest of spiders. The narrative, penned by Scott Chambers, effectively builds suspense as a determined radio host, portrayed with palpable desperation, seeks a career-revitalizing scoop. The film excels in its claustrophobic atmosphere, trapping the audience alongside the characters in the suffocating confines of the infested cottage. While the special effects might lean towards the B-movie aesthetic, they serve the visceral horror effectively, amplifying the terror of the giant arachnids. The ensemble cast, including a notable performance from Sarah Alexandra Marks, navigates the escalating peril with believable fear. "Spider in the Attic" delivers a taut, creature-feature experience that will undoubtedly unsettle arachnophobes and horror aficionados alike, offering a satisfyingly grim tale of curiosity leading to a terrifying demise.
