Michael P @TheeMichael-jai May 1, 2024 I wish I had half as much plot armour in real life as the main characters do. See more Thomas R @RT07917184 Jul 17, 2023 "People need to believe in something whether it's to blame or to praise. You believe in something long enough and hard enough, it becomes reality." – Walter Clark (Bruce Davison) The huge, hairy spider in "Itsy Bitsy" is a metaphor for mother/nurse Kara Spencer's (Elizabeth Roberts) anxiety, her emotional trauma caused by losing a child, and her subsequent Opioid addiction. The stronger the spider grows and spins her enchanting webs, and the frenzied rate of her procreation (planting egg sacks in strategic spots in the attic), the more spindly and vulnerable the protagonist becomes. Director and screenwriter Micah Gallo tells a simple, yet beautifully-&-tensely-told horror tale; he has a nook-&-cranny, cinematic eye; and the cast gives a flawless performance, especially the two child actors Chloe Perrin (Cambria Spencer) and Arman Darbo (Jesse Spencer). The spider/kid fight scenes will freak you out. See more Feb 24, 2022 "Would you check under my bed?"... Cinematography and editing are great! The monster is only a secondary character, the first one is the family drama, portrayed in a genuine way.

See more Jun 25, 2020 Almost decent watch, don't want to watch this again, and can only recommend for a Bad Movie Night. They got some decent actors (even the kids), they had some acceptable production value, but I was still surprised to see this was a 2019 movie, it looks closer to 2010. The real shame is that once it starts to horror movie, it actually does a good job. There are clearly things from Jaws and Alien, maybe even The Thing, sprinkled in this, so at least the people involved are legitimate horror people. All the establishing story, and the B-plot involving everyone outside the 2 houses is just a waste. None of it pays off. I get that they were trying to do what Arachnophobia did, but that had a point to it. We came here to see a spider hunt people, just give us that. See more Read all reviews
