Reception[edit]

Short dark mac os. Matthew Roe of Film Threat gave the film a negative review, writing 'Itsy Bitsy has some fantastic human moments inside its bland monster facade and is the only real reason I can recommend the film – however, for some it won't be enough to redeem the played-out and wonky elements.'[7]Culture Crypt rated the film a score of 55 out of 100, criticizing its underwritten characters, script, and finale. The reviewer concluded, 'Itsy Bitsy isn't going to win any awards or become anyone's favorite film. It's too grim to grab the gusto it needs to stand out without edging into over-the-top outrageousness. But it is professionally produced, features a few intriguing pops, and makes for a decent diversion during a weekend's entertainment.'[8] Veronique Englebert from The Review Geek scored the film a mixed 5.5 out of 10, writing, 'Itsy Bitsy is not a bad spider movie but it's not a particularly great one either. It fails to reach the same creepiness found in movies like Arachnophobia and takes a while to get into the swing of things. However, the welcome practical effects and empathetic characters help but can't quite save the day for this average creature feature.'[9]
Meagan Navarro from Bloody Disgusting commended the film's special effects and camerawork; but criticized the sparse appearance of its antagonist, unresolved ending, and unlikable characters. Concluding her review, Navarro recommended the film based on the special effect, in spite of its faults, calling it 'a big step in the right direction'.[10]Noel Murray of the Los Angeles Times gave the film a positive review, praising the film's gothic atmosphere, special effects, and 'existential dread'.[11]
