Into The Spider-Adverse

Small-town doctor Jeff Daniels (Speed) must overcome his lifelong Arachnophobia if he hopes to rid his home of a lethal new strain of poisonous spider in this 1990 horror-comedy. Was the bug hater correct in calling in boorish exterminator John Goodman (TV’s Roseanne) and snotty scientist Julian Sands (Warlock) to help solve his eight-legged problem? And is longtime Spielberg producer (and first-time director) Frank Marshall able to spin a creature feature as satisfying as Jaws?  Find out when you become a Now Playing Patron this October.

Overview
A large spider from the jungles of South America is accidentally transported in a crate with a dead body to America where it mates with a local spider. Soon after, the residents of a small California town disappear as the result of spider bites from the deadly spider offspring. It's up to a couple of doctors with the help of an insect exterminator to annihilate these eight legged freaks.
