Squatters get more than they bargained for when they
unwittingly find themselves inside the domain of a crazy killer in Spiderhole (2010). Most of the time the killer captures his
victims and then tortures them in a single location but this film takes it into
a completely different set up by having four people get themselves trapped
inside a killer’s spider-web in which the killer goes after them one at a time.
There’s not much new or original about the concept but it
does move at a brisk pace and is anything but uninteresting. Once the four squatters realize their
predicament the film gets interesting as the characters actually act and react
like almost real characters might as they fight back and try to escape. There’s an interesting twist with the killer that
I didn’t see coming but in the grand scheme of things this is not a film that
you will remember because it lacks that extra little something that would put
it above the rest of the cannon fodder out there.
The film is written & directed by Daniel Simpson with
cinematography by Vinit Borrison and together they do create a foreboding
atmosphere to the film which works in the film’s favor and helps create a
creeping mood. This mood is extended in
the music by Jason Cooper and Oliver Kraus so there are a few things that will
keep the audience interested and on the edge of their seats.
