For our first spotlighted film on Moviocrity, we look at Jack Hill's cult classic, SPIDER BABY. It's a film involving cannibalism, incest, murder, sexual awakening, madness - and all done in a manner that is comedic as well as tragic. The film stars Lon Chaney Jr., Sid Haig (in his screen debut), Jill Banner, Beverly Washburn, Carol Ohmart and Mantan Moreland. It's a true enemy of Moviocrity.
