December 14 is quite a day for genre film. In 1955 moviegoers were introduced to the terror of Ray Bradbury’s killer arachnids. 2002 put horror heavy-hitter Eli Roth on the map with a gory tale of a group of college kids who lose their clothes and their flesh. 2005 saw a monster movie mainstay re-imagined by one of film’s greatest directors into an Academy Award-winning picture.
