Hi, I vaguely remember this movie, made somewhere late 80s early 90s.

There was a scene where this guy had a tattoo of a spider and the tattoo came to life and killed him. Also think there was a tattoo of a hand that strangles another guy.

My first thought was that this was from an episode of Friday the 13th The series. But I saw it so long ago...

Anyway, found this link which describes the episode 'Tattoo' as having a spider tattoo come to life, so I'm thinking it may be the one.

I'm thinking the same thing. I saw that episode on TV a few months ago
