She has quite the hobby of exploring and sketching out comics with her father. She meets a spider in her grandmother's apartment and brings it to her room to take care of it. The spider is kept inside of a jar where Charlotte observes the spider as it consumes insects. She notices that the spider grows at an alarming rate and is fascinated by its progress. The story takes a mysterious turn when the residents in the surrounding halls disappear one by one. Charlotte is left by herself where she designs an attack plan and mechanism to defend her residence and save her family. PERSONAL OPINIONS I was really pleased by the pacing of the movie and the background music. It was a smooth watch with humorous moments, jump scares, and plot twists. The attention to detail was incredible! Allowing the other neighbors to have their own moments in the movie allowed for the audience to connect with them before their disappearances. It was a nice addition to the pacing of the movie. The kills were absolutely epic! They were pretty neat to witness in the theater. A minor comment I have about the film was the backstory of why a bullet with the spiders were aimed at this particular resident building. I hoped for coverage on the lore behind the spider, but with the way the film ended, perhaps a second movie might explore the spider's origin. RATING: 8/10! | | | |  | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
