Arachnid (2001)


A science fiction directed by Jack Sholder.
A team of specialists go to an island to find out what bit a man who showed up in a nearby hospital. It turns out to be a giant spider.
I thought that this was a Science Fiction Channel movie, but it may not be, as they are not credited on the IMBD page. It is, however, cheap and cheesy. The characters and plot are 2 dimensional and they have this new-Hollywood mental illness that keeps them from getting along until their lives are in danger. Oh well, at least it was short. I'm rating it shit.

Wishmaster Series (1997-2002)


A horror directed by Robert Kurtzman, Jack Sholder and Chris Angel.
A djinn is awakened and grants wishes until the awakener wishes 3 times and unleashes all of the demons. The djinn is defeated when he tries to fulfill the prophecy.
This belongs in the 80s horror genre regardless of dates. Ahura Mazda is really a benevolent mythic character from what I read and NONE of the information presented about him in this film turned out to be true. I thought it was cheesy and badly scripted, but so what? I'm rating it o.k. because it occupied some time without pissing me off.
