I'm into cinema and prefer horror movies generally speaking....

Just wanted to jog some memories if anyone can remember movies with T's in them.

I can think of a couple right away:

Kingdom of the Spiders (William Shatner)

Raiders of the Lost Ark (looks like Braychs)

There’s a late 90s movie I can’t remember the name of. It’s tarazan-esque, but with a kid they bring back to “civilization” anyway the kid keeps his tarantula in like a coconut or something and uses the thing like a pokemon to wreak havoc or something. It’s been at least 15 years since i’ve seen this movie

I love that movie!!! It has Tim Allen in it as the boys dad! His son's name is Mimi-Siku, lol. I will have to look it up as I can't recall the name of it.....

And the black-and-white 50's classic "Tarantula!".

I thought there might be some in "Food of the Gods" but I think that one was mostly rats.
Yep, and big freaking Hornets. I must preference my horror selection "the more ridiculous and campy the better". That movie is classic, it was around that time period in the late 70s early 80s there was a slew of "killer animal" movies.

Night of the Lepus-Killer Bunnies
Frogs-All kinds of killer reptiles
Squirm-Killer Earth Worms
Piranha- well enough said

Ahhhhh there's one you're missing....it's a 1988 movie called "Slugs". You should watch it. ;) Pretty damn gory.
