Tarantulas

What's his name? Rimrod? Ramrod? Ramrod, Boomerang, Tombstone,

Scorpion, and Tarantula.

Tarantula.

We got fucking Tarantula in one of these.

Austin's just like, what the fuck is he talking about? Tarantula, those shit are obscure minor characters, Marvel characters, Spider-Man villains.

Rain, what do you want to say?

I was going to do a nerd thing, but I was like, I can't stop that shit.

It's a bug, but it's a specific kind of bug.

What bug? Tarantula.

There

you go.

And they call out Durant.

Okay, when Durant comes on, his nickname is the Tarantula.

Everybody puts their lights on their phone and then there's this gigantic graphic and it's like, and he goes out like Bad Bunny style and they have a tarantula like graphic and he closes it down.

So anyway, I had a day where I got some stupid career news and all these things had gone wrong.

And the first one we have up is a pretty substantial film here, a release as well from Celluloid Dreams.

This is Black Belly of the Tarantula, the 4K edition here.

Deluxe, all sorts of stuff in here.

Booklet, postcards, all sorts of really cool stuff.

Well, he did Plot of Fear and he did The Wild Eye before this.

So, he had a nice little kind of, you know, group of films.

But he wasn't as prolific as one would think after seeing Black Valley with the Tarantula.

So... um in the interviews and everything like that it come to find out that the director really wasn't a big fan of thrillers he wasn't a fan of the subgenre although his son says he kept uh up on all kind of movies all kind of the films at the time so he was very versed in cinema but thrillers really weren't his strong genre he wasn't really a fan of them but um you know he's produced he was approached by a producer and thought this producer has always had his eye on them even before the big kick in 1970, so they ended up making this one the Black Belly of the Tarantula.
