Leave your thoughts about Curse of the Black Widow.
| User ReviewMike MMovie-of-the-week focusing on a strange series of murders committed by a giant Black Widow spider. *Hope that's not a spoiler. This 70s horror flick was directed by genre king (and underrated) Dan Curtis, yet, lacks the allure of his Night Stalker, Dracula and other efforts. Decent popcorn movie that plays like an episode of Magnum P.I. only with less T. C. and instead, more hairy things than should be allowed on screen (even in the 70s). Lots of stars at least with the transformation sequence holding a kitschy charm. Plays like a story from the old Eerie or Creepy mags. |
| User ReviewMichael WPI Higby enters a web of mystery surrounding a series of grisly killings linked to a woman who transforms herself into a giant black widow spider(!). Reliable cast attempts to give this story any measure of crediblity. Another bit of camp from TV movie stalwart Dan Curtis for the ABC Movie of the Week. Worth it to see Franciosa confront a giant prop spider in the climax. |
| User ReviewAdam FGood cast, a few chills, funky music, and a decent looking spider can't save this otherwise dull, forgettable film that attempts the tongue in cheek humor of the Kolchak movies, but fails. I love those 1970s made for TV Horror movies, but this one is skippable. |
