Take a load off. Fasten your seat belt and join Arachna of the Spider People and her friend Deadly as they host Beware Theater - Classic horror movies from the golden age of black and white - that are in the public domain. Bad Acting, Bad directing. Cheezy special effects and lame plots - You'll see vampires, monsters, werewolves, aliens and, of course, the un-dead. They're weird, charming, scary, or just plain stupid movies. What's not to like? As strange a pair as you're ever gonna see, Arachna and her dead, but still animated, skeleton friend Deadly sit on their old couch and show us how these monochromatic movie marvels are so bad, they're good. They hope you learn to appreciate how weird and charming they are and come back for more. Oh, and don't forget to stay tuned after the movie credits for a bonus short, quirky after-movie skit of the adventures of Arachna and Deadly.
