SPIDER FOREST looks like it had some intriguing ideas in place prior to production, but the final product is a crabbed and often hard-to-follow farrago with a light smattering of atmospheric moments.
A lovely young lady dwells within a European forest where super-venomous spiders roam, although she is, it seems, impervious to their deadly bite...her male lovers, however, aren't so lucky.
When a young artist takes lodging in the aforementioned locale, he becomes smitten with the mysterious spider-girl, pursues her, and inadvertently finds himself embroiled in a covert Nazi experiment to create a highly lethal neuro-toxin.
Far too much going on here, and quite sloppily presented. Whatever potential may have been in play here is sadly lost to mishandling of the material, mostly in relation to editing/continuity problems. Pity.
4/10
