There was a nighttime scene where two old bums were running from the tarantula. One kept falling and the other kept stopping to go back and get him. They both got eaten. Would you have left your buddy behind if he was the one who kept tripping?
shareI'm sorry to say that if it was anyone but my child, I would have kept going.

Uh, yeah. If he can't stay on his feet then tough sh*t....
shareI got a buddy with a fake leg and I would leave his ass in the dirt to survive - sorry Phil.
You want a toe? I can get you a toe, believe me. There are ways, Dude.
I would have tripped the bastard up myself if it meant me getting away.
You are entitled to my opinion, whether you want it or not!!
Family member = , anyone else = . Btw, why did one of them keep falling down, and why is there always someone prone to that in these types of films? And of course that one police office in a later scene couldn't get the doc's car to start-up so he and his partner could escape before being eaten. Of course...
I don't know what's a sig. line? Can't think of one! Can you tell me what one is?
There's always a tripping/falling scene to "up" the suspense. What's worse than running from a monster? Tripping while running from a monster. Usually this spasticity befalls the female of the company, but as this thread shows, sometimes even males slip and trip when chased by monsters.
shareFunny thing is even if he or the other guy wasn't tripping the giant spider would've still probably gotten them and eaten them anyway. They were out in an open field and that spider could obviously move faster than they and cover much more ground. They were doomed no matter what they did.
The cops on the other hand might (or might not) have a least have had a chance of escaping if the one idiot didn't keep flooding the engine.

When running away from Hollywood movie creatures, you don't have to be fast. Just faster than the other person!!!
Just think of other movies with very slow creatures that actually caught people.
1.Frankenstein monsters--all versions
2.Mummy-again all versions
3.Zombies- Original Night of the Living Dead version, not today's versions.
Today's versions could run in the Boston Marathon and catch anyone they wanted.
And so forth...
4. The Blob-How in the hell does the Blob catch you, but it does.
