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

Author: gwnightscream from United States
26 July 2015

*** This review may contain spoilers ***

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.

That's supposed to be when and where the worst traffic in the country is: L.A. on a Thursday afternoon! Who knew?

But Nia Peeples in a low-cut top just makes it better, somehow.

"Carmageddon" was a complete BUST! Like "Black Friday" was supposed to be, during the '84 Olympics. Events all day from near Santa Barbara all the way down below Orange County. Supposed to be murder. So everybody left town. And those of us who stayed behind had the freeways TO OURSELVES!!!

It was Freakin' FABULOUS!

I was dreading the drive home, but it was mostly a breeze.

Though if Nia was riding with me it would have been even better.

I'm taking no chances on missing it. I tuned into to SyFy early, so I get the added benefit of getting to watch 'Zombie Shark' before the main feature begins. Win/win!
