There's this mad scientist, and he's making
women out of spiders! Hmmmm, I just can't see
how anything could possibly go wrong!!
This is quite boring, with REALLY annoying
guitar music throughout! This is a very bad
copy of the movie! C-

A review from an IMDb.com customer:

One of the best of the so-bad-it's-beautiful
movies. MESA OF LOST WOMEN tells the story
of a mad scientist (Jackie Coogan with a wart
the size of a Roosevelt dime!) who creates
beautiful dancing girls out of spiders.
(most likely to help out the struggling
Rockette industry!) I absolutely loved
the scene with the mad doc's victim, a
scientist driven insane by a spider-woman
encounter. He goes around bars, quoting
something close to the Bible, in a silly
Elmer Fudd voice.

What I really loved about this movie was
Tandra Quinn, as Tarantella, the mad doc's
best spider to mucha-cha creation. She's
something like a brunette Jayne Mansfield
with a little bit of Vampirella thrown in.
Ms. Quinn, you made film history with your
really strange spider dance. - boris-26
