Spider-Man: Con Caper & Curse of Rava [VHS]

Description

Spidey returns in this collection of more episodes from the 1977 live-action television series. Includes "Con Caper," which finds a corrupt politician springing his criminal cohorts from the pokey, and "Curse of Rava," in which a charismatic cult leader tries to steal a priceless statue. VIEWER COMMENT: "This tape has 2 episodes of the 70's live-action Spidey show that have a whole 2 characters from the original comix. Spidey (i would hope!) and J. Jonah. The baddies are generic. Thats right no Green Goblin, no Doc Ock, no nobody! Instead Peter uses his reporter skills to act as a Nancy Drew/Hardy Boy type sleuth and investigate insipid crimes and then catch the baddies by turning into Spidey for an entire 5 min. an episode. He doesnt even bust one joke! An J.J.J. is bald! Although his is the only character thats is played with any real enthusiasm. So even though this blows, just seeing ol' Webs in live-action swingin' from buildings and kickin' buttock just brings a smile to my face."
