  • "Steve Guttenberg Vs. Giant Lava-Spitting Spiders!"

    gwnightscream2015-07-26

    Steve Guttenberg, Nia Peeples, Noah Hunt and Patrick Renna star in this 2015 sci-fi action film. This takes place in L.A. and Guttenberg (Police Academy) plays action film star, Colton West who finds himself in a real-life film after earthquakes unleash giant lava-spitting spiders that terrorize the city. Colton races across town to save his wife, Olivia (Peeples) and teenage son, Wyatt (Hunt). Renna (The Sandlot) plays Jack, a fan of Colton who helps him and Guttenberg's "Police Academy" co-stars, Michael Winslow, Marion Ramsey and Leslie Easterbrook also appear. This pays tribute and pokes fun at giant creature features like "Sharknado" and Guttenberg is great in it as usual. It's a cheesy, but fun flick I recommend checking out at least once.

  • A fun ride

    Yes. I gave the obligatory eye roll when I saw the title. Another disaster movie. Another low budget attempt to make a movie with meaning. A rubber stamp copy of a copy of a copy. I went into viewing this with low expectations, thinking I wouldn't get past the first 10 minutes. But I was wrong. From the beginning, this movie showed it did not take itself too seriously. It parodied all movies of this genre with a tongue in cheek innocence that belied it's self effacing motive. It had me smiling from end to end. The clichés came with regularity and predictability. It's kind of like sitting in a Rocky Horror Picture Show revival. You know the lines. You speak them out loud. You throw rice. It's great fun as long as you accept you are part of the joke and it's OK to laugh. Guttenberg and Peeples looked like they had so much fun with their roles. Their campy caricatures of people with greatness thrust upon them by adversity couldn't have been played (or overplayed, if you like) any better. And who could ever resist Michael Winslow? This movie was a hoot. Take it for what it is....a very clever play on the genre.

  • Full of itself

    So the success of Sharknado (why again?), has made things like this possible. This goes Meta too, with Steve Guttenberg playing a formerly successful celebrity ... sounds familiar? I guess you've seen Police Academy then. And he's not alone from that movie, also there are some other "stars" who do have their moment. And while this is far from perfect, it does work overall, with some bumps and holes along the way. If you can dig the humor that is really setting a low bar, you will be entertained while watching this. It's made for TV and the effects are therefor ... well you actually have seen way better effects on TV shows. Then again, this has probably a lower budget. You'll either make excuses for it, because you love it, or you'll be annoyed by it to say the least. Make up your mind and enjoy or stay away ..

  • This is a fun movie and is one of the best SyFy channel productions.

    In the world of movies on the SyFy channel, this is one of the best, comparing quite favorably with the Sharknado series. It is fun and gives the audience a very positive and light experience. The actors are entertaining and enjoyable to watch. Steve Guttenberg is credible as someone confronting the unbelievable and the unbelieving while maintaining a hint of humor and coolness under fire. Nia Peeples is somewhere between amazing and spectacular. She has excellent acting skills, is great looking, and plays a great action heroine. Great and attractive leading actors are a key element of the successful SyFy production. The supporting cast brings us memorable blasts from the past. The gore is minimal and sufficiently animated not to be gross and distasteful. Finally, the good guys win and the leading characters and very likable secondary characters survive, as they always should in a competent action movie. The script and production values are wonderful for the limited budget. This movie is a breath of fresh air after some of the totally distasteful and discouraging new shark movies of 2015, for example, "Zombie Shark."

  • Volcanic spiders

    Prismark102016-05-15

    Lavalantula with Steve Guttenberg. I was fearing the worst with this SyFy channel film and surprisingly ended up enjoying it. A cheesy B film with decent enough special effects as Guttenberg plays a down on his luck actor who finds that there are a series of tremors in LA and then a volcanic eruption that spews up giant fire breathing spiders. Guttenberg needs to get to warn his wife and teenage son. Along the way he commandeers a Hollywood tour bus, gets help from a one armed former stunt man and gets exposition from a scientist in the museum at the La Brea Tarpits. In the meantime Guttenberg is joined by his former co stars from the Police Academy films, there are in jokes such as the Blue Oyster bar being destroyed and a rip roaring speech by Guttenberg which owes a little to Independence Day. Fun, action packed, cheap, cheesy and even a little scary. A real improvement from the usual SyFy output.
