Directed by: Frank Marshall
Starring: John Goodman, Jeff Daniels, Julian Sands, Harley Jane Kozak
Audio problem: Right after the doctor falls in the basement he is talking about how no spiders are going to be there. Then he keeps repeating "Oh s***" but it looks like his lips are delayed.
Audio problem: When Bunny says "Yo Dr Death" when riding off in the car with Shelley, her lips don't move. (00:58:05)
Revealing mistake: When Jerry Manley gets bitten by the spider in the tent in South America, the others come to look at his corpse, you can see clearly see his neck pulsating, when he should be dead. (00:15:35)
Delbert McClintock: Rock and roll.
Trivia: Near the start of the film, when Atherton is examining the spider after returning from the valley, several butterflies are seen pinned up in front of him. Several of these are not South American butterflies - the top left one (blue with long tails) is Papilio Ulysses, a species of tropical Australia, and the big green-and-black one near the bottom right is Ornithoptera priamus or O. euphorion. Whether this qualifies as a mistake, I don't know - Atherton is supposed to be an expert, so they may not be the most geographically accurate 'colourful' butterflies to use.
Question: Are the small spiders in the movie an actual type of spider? If so, what are they called?
