Summary
A bunch of spiders are captured from a hole in a desert.
Much to the annoyance of his sister Manon, wannabe hustler Kaleb adds a spider to his makeshift menagerie.
When latest addition escapes and lays eggs, all hell breaks loose, and a desperate battle for survival begins.
Arachnids of unusual size
Patient build up explodes into a cacophony of tension and panic, where fear literally spills from every nook and cranny.
Shit is deadly serious, and performances feel very real indeed.
Creature effects are really impressive and CG doesn't look cheap at all.
Spidergeddon delivers brutal bursts of carnage and 'eww' moments are not in short supply.
Amidst all the positives, it's a shame that spectacle is light on gore and climax disappoints.
However, bathing claustrophobic apartment block setting in blood may have spoiled a little gem.
