Larger Than Life

Synopsis

A young woman named Jo has recently purchased an old house in the suburbs. While moving in, she discovers spiders in her bathroom. She hates spiders and decides to call in a professional. The pest controller opens a "Pandora's box" of terror, unleashing mayhem into the house. Jo must now confront her worse fear in order to survive. Will she live in the end or will she fall into the claws of Arachnophobes? Contrary to Godzilla shouts, "Size does matter theme," this short & white film, with only a small portion of Godzilla's production cost, beats the giant in artistic merit. The horror/suspense of Lager Than Life and its environmental overtones will appeal to young people, while older audiences will immediately identify with the "fifties"genre. (Na Ho - Won)
