I'm with Boggy on this one. I have never seen it!!! I have to check it out now. Not just because I am a Sid Haig fan, but mostly for Lon Chaney Jr.

It's a good movie, but good as in good like Herschell Gordon Lewis's movies. Not a movie I could watch a lot.

Plot:In a dilapidated rural mansion, the last generation of the degenerate, inbred Merrye family lives with the inherited curse of a disease that causes them to mentally regress from the age of 10 or so on as they physically develop. The family chauffeur looks out for them and covers up their indiscretions. Trouble comes when greedy distant relatives and their lawyer arrive to dispossess the family of its home. Acting:The acting is Fantastic. Lon Chaney Jr did an outstanding acting job Along with Sid Haig(Devils rejects)Jill Banner, Beverly Washburn,Quinn K. Redeker ,and pretty girl Carol Ohmart. I especially enjoyed the performances from the girls Jill banner's character Virginia and Beverly Washburn's character Elizabeth. Gore:ears get cut off,,stabbings, they eat a cat for dinner,the cellar people also devour a few people..Virginia eats the mail man and a few spiders..this movie is f king Awesome!! T&A:We get a real nice sexy lingerie show by Carol Ohmart..she strips down to only a black lingerie outfit..hmmmmmm Bottom line:Heres a real nice bottom line summary found on the back of the dvd box,written by Joe Dante who directed(The howling) Once likened to"a television sitcom directed by Luis bunuel" Jack Hill's Spider baby is probably the most mini budget independent horror film produced during the early sixties,including carnival of souls,the sadist.night tide Creature from the haunted sea,among other..And for decades it was the most elusive.Filmed in 12 frantic days in 1964 under the title cannibal Orgy,Or the Maddest story ever told,the film was soon locked up in litigation that dragged on for three years,Eventually re titles spider baby and distributed as a drive-in second feature. Whats all the fuss about?Well,Spider baby is that rarity among movies..something different-and genuinely creepy to boot.Lon Chaney Jr in what has been defined as"a restrained and even touching sunset performance"stars as Bruno.world weary chauffeur and guardian to the last remaining members of the luckless merrye family.all of whom suffer from the dreaded "Merrye Syndrome"-Defined in the dictionary of rare and peculiar diseases as a progressive deterioration of the mental faculties..a rotting of the brain,so to speak. ------------------------------------------------------------- I never recommended any movie to anyone before due to my tatse in movies, but if you are a fan of The late great Lon Chaney Jr,,PICK THIS MOVIE UP,...and I'm also sure you'll fall in love with the 2 gorgeous girls Virginia and Elizabeth as i did.. Good HuntingA few recent Beverly Washburn(Elizabeth) pics i found on the net A recent picture of Jill Banner(Virginia) i found..Sadly she passed away at an early age of 36 in a car accident Boy was she Pretty..RIP 10/10-XN
