Summary: A man tries to get a good night's sleep, but is disturbed by a giant spider that leaps onto his bed, and a battle ensues in hilarious comic fashion. (imdb)
The original giant bug movie. I laughed quite a lot for a movie that's only a little over a minute long. I had a ladyfriend once who would have screamed and jumped three feet in the air if she had a bug in her bed like that
If the idea of Melies was to draw laughter from his brief play on the truly nightmarish struggles that may occur between man and insect, he's unfortunately failed. Still, there's a compulsive watchability to these cinematic antiques, driven no doubt by one's desire to trace the medium back to its embryonic era.
