zzoaozz I actually like killer animal movies. I love night of the Lepus with its giant bunny rabbits and Bats with its genetically altered bats eating people. This movie however is flat out awful. First of all, the acting is utterly atrocious. The lines are delivered in a stilted manner as if the actors are embarrassed to be in the movie. Their emotions are as flat as an elementary school play. I have seen a few movies with acting this bad but never one worse than this. Second, the dialog is terrible. Even if the actors weren't so awful, the script is totally nonredeemable. Third, the spiders weren't big enough to be terrifying or plentiful enough to be overwhelming. There were many instances when one of the characters could easily have crushed one, but instead they chose to panic and run about mindlessly. There were exactly six spiders about the size of a big dog and one was killed early on when it was struck by a snowmobile. They didn't even look horrifying. The CGI made them look rather like a child's toy spiders. It was very hard sitting through this movie. I think it might fairly be called one of the worst of all time.

damnedifyoudont But I wasn't disappointed because it was a bad movie, which it was. I was expecting a lot worse, and I didn't get it. I enjoy watching movies that are so pathetic that you can only laugh at them. I watched this movie because the girl from Troll 2 is in it, although she has like one line (and no dance moves - shame).The story is recycled garbage (secret scientific experiments, regular creature gets mutated, the head scientist wants them 'captured' but they really just need to die, etc). The acting is atrocious, however the look of fright on most of the characters was believable. Sadly, the spiders did look pretty 'gnarly' for poorly done CGI, and for that level of adequacy alone I am disappointed. There are scares and tension, which is well done considering the entire movie took place during the day. Ever notice that things are scarier at night? The props were pretty good, like the webs and the dead carcasses and the spider in the box.In conclusion: it didn't completely fail, so I'm disappointed. I give it 7 stars, and that in my books is an insult. If you want to please me and get my coveted one-star rating, aim a lot lower next time.

cecilliawhite OK, So while working on a really long, boring History Project, I decided either listen to music that I've heard over and over again, sit in silence, or, watch the next SciFi movie coming on. Being the SciFi nut I am, I went for the movie.I really didn't expect much, by reading the movie description, however, they could have went further, and done much better with this movie. The characters absolutely sucked, I must admit, which, I think had some effect over the story line, which, with better acting, would have been a lot better.But, for a movie that I just "listened too", it wasn't complete, utter, garbage, hence why I gave it a 3. With better acting, it might have gotten a 5. So, if you need something to help waste your already wasted time, or, if you are say, sick with the flu, go ahead, have a laugh; as, if you watch this movie, I guarantee you'll laugh at a few scenes, though mostly out of mere stupidity.

cloudman88 Sci-Fi really outdid themselves with Ice Spiders. First of all, there is a rational amount of ice, and then there are in fact spiders to boot. There's some nice cheesy gore scenes and one really hilarious scene where some idiot stumbles into the spider's horrible forest lair and finds a body in a cocoon. The best thing about this movie is the short bus filled with the rejects from the local high school's special education program. Oh, and while attempting to flee the horrible spiders, they flip and roll the bus into a ditch because one of the mouth breathers decides to floor it on a road that is covered with, you guessed it, ice. And also spiders, surprisingly enough.
