Earth vs. the Spider sounds like #Monsterdon material.
“What is a malt?” smh
Found an eBay auction for a “Flamer: the electric football” from that ad.

“Call the pest control in Springdale, have them send all the DDT they can find.” Oh no.
This Mike guy is so dismissive of everything. He needs to get eaten by a spider ASAP.

A ★★½ review of Earth vs. the Spider (2001)
This one had some standout elements, particularly the fantastic creature effects by Stan Winston and a few charming lead characters. Unfortunately, Dan Aykroyd delivers a pretty dull performance, which drags things down. It’s an interesting twist on the superhero genre, coming well before superhero movies became stupidly bananas. I even noticed some shots that seemed to prefigure moments in Sam Raimi’s Spiderman; which made me wish Raimi had directed this, as his style might have elevated it. The tone wavers unpredictably, leaving you unsure if the humor is intentional or accidental. It starts off as a fun ‘90s comedy-style flick

Mark HDelving into the #MST3K library archive for movies we can't remember seeing before, so tonight we're watching Earth Versus The Spider. We're not good around spiders, which might explain why we've avoided this until now, but we are good around 1950s movies with quite likely terrible special effects and unrealistic arachnids, so we're giving it a go.
