10 Genuinely Terrifying Scenes Trapped In Terrible Horror Movies
5. Spider Lady - Spookies
Most of the time, cult classic horror films tend to air more on the side campy thrills than outright scares and Spookies is certainly no different.
Both beloved and reviled for its overt ridiculousness and the nonsensical plot that sees a group of people being besieged by zombies, the grim reaper and many other nightmarish creatures, this is a great film to bring to bad movie night, although if there are any arachnophobes in your little cinema club, you may just send them running for the hills.
One of the characters finds themselves separated from the group and stumbles into a dark cave adorned with giant spider webs, he's quickly greeted by a woman who speaks cryptically to him about this being her prison, all the while an extra-large spider begins making its way up his back. The spider quickly attacks and sends the man careening into a nearby web where he becomes ensnared, all the while the lady begins to transform into a monstrous giant spider and proceeds to devour him.
Even in spite of its ropey special effects and am-dram quality acting, it's a scene that is still capable of making you squirm due to how unpleasant and gross the whole thing is.
