Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for fans of a well-timed joke and people who like to watch through their fingers. A good one for a late-night scare.
The mood
Scary.
The pace
Keeps the tension tight, at 1 hr 25 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
Not one for anyone who hates jump scares.

Down at the docks a very enterprising but dangerous element is making life miserable for Sheriff Marga. But she is distracted by a series of puzzling kidnappings that is plaguing her parish. Could the culprit be the mysterious Queen - the dance hall queen of the docks? Or could it be an even more sinister figure: The Killer Tarantula?
