The Horrors of Spider Island

This is one of those 1960’s black and white (even though the box says it’s color) films that was probably scary at the time, but isn’t even close now. I’ll also be a complete chauvinist pig and say women from the 1960’s were complete imbeciles (according to this movie). I’m glad my mother turned out as brilliant as she did. A group of dancers gets sent to Singapore and crash along the way. They end up on an island where a giant spider has killed the lone professor on the island. The best part is the professor has been mining uranium with a hammer – yup, just a hammer. Hilarious. The spider bites the dancers’ manager and he turns into part spider and begins killing girls. There are all kinds of girls in bras and swimsuits but since nudity wasn’t invented until the 70’s at Woodstock, you never see anything. The spider guy kills a couple girls and then the rescue team shows up. Don’t bother with this one.
