    An interesting concept with a bevy of beauties stranded on an island and something happens to one of the guys. This is a silly film that is not scary and the effects are so laughably bad it possibly works as one of the worst films ever, really not worth the time or effort.

    Just watched HORRORS OF SPIDER ISLAND, directed by Fritz Bottger. This is a cheesy German sexpliotation film dubbed in English where a plane full of exotic dancers crashes on a deserted island and are terrorized first by a giant spider, then by a guy who gets bit by the spider and turns into some kind of spider/wolfman hybrid. This movie is pretty lax on the horror, but has a prolonged sequence where the girls dance around in bikinis for some reason. If I knew I was stuck on an island with a mutated monster trying to kill me, I'd think that throwing a party would be pretty far down the list of things to do in order to survive.

    Ultra low-rent sexploitation/monster movie that delivers on neither genre. Noteworthy only for its Greek chorus of complaining pre-feminist women and men who "don't like to be kept waiting", plus its status as perhaps the least urgent film ever about either shipwrecks or prowling monsters.
