Eight Beautiful Women Alone with the World's Most Hideous Monster!
Eight sexy showgirls (including Euro bombshell Barbara Valentin) and their macho manager, Gary (Alex D'Arcy), survive a plane crash by taking refuge on a remote tropical island.As the gals adjust to the heat and humidity by removing most of their clothes, they also meet one of their new neighbors: a dead scientist found hanging in a giant web. Ignoring the obvious, testosterone-fueled Gary blithely takes a midnight stroll until he's bitten by an overgrown, crab-like spider and immediately transforms into a clawed, fanged, hairy-faced bogeyman who does exactly what monsters in horror films are supposed to do: chase women!
Hard to believe but back in the 1960s Horrors Of Spider Island was considered something of a dirty movie.Originally sold to U.S. grindhouses with a sexploitation ad campaign and the mildly suggestive title It's Hot In Paradise, the charms of this delirious horror cheesecake classick from West Germany came from its drooling mix of monsters and half-naked women as well as a wonderfully gratuitous skinny-dipping scene.
