Arachnophobia
A new species of South American killer spider hitches a lift to a California town in a coffin and starts to breed, leaving a trail of deaths that puzzle and terrify young Dr. Ross Jennings, who is newly arrived in town with his family. In the jungle of the Venezuelan Amazonas, the specialist in spiders, Doctor James Atherton, is researching an unknown species of spider recently discovered. His photographer Jerry Manley is bitten by one spider and his body is sent to his hometown Canaima with one spider hidden in the coffin. She escapes and hides in a barn of a house. Dr. Ross Jennings moves with his family from San Francisco to the small town Canaima seeking for a peaceful place to raise his son and his daughter. He has had a trauma with spiders since he was two years old. However, the spider built a nest in his barn and his basement and has reproduced. The town is infested of the mortal species of spider from Venezuela, and Dr. Ross, together with Doctor James Atherton, his assistant Chris Collins and the exterminator Delbert McClintock try to find the nest to destroy the queen and end the menace. —Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil 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 aided by an insect exterminator to annihilate these eight-legged freaks before they take over the entire town. —Shaun Ouimette <xtreemshaun589@hotmail.com> A group of researchers is on a research expedition to Venezuela. Upon a routine trapping of insects, the researchers find two stunned spiders in their traps, and they study these insects that are unlike any spiders they have ever seen. One spider escapes and kills a researcher, then hitches a ride back to the researchers' hometown, Canaima, California. Dr. Ross Jennings has just moved in there and is deathly afraid of spiders. Now, the Venezuelan spider has reached the U.S., and has begun to dominate the town. Soon, people who appear completely healthy start to die suddenly. Only after the death of the town's only other doctor does Jennings realize that a spider might be causing the deaths. He sends his assistant to Canaima, only verifying that the Venezuelan spider was involved. He informs them that the Venezuelan spider plans to take over its new area by creating reproductive offspring with a domestic house spider. Now, it's a race against time before the Venezuelan spider manifests the town, and eventually the entire country. —brenleyman A strange spider from the depths of a jungle is accidentally transported back to the good old USA. Through numerous coincidences and accidents, it finds a home in the barn of a doctor's new home. After it mates with a local spider, thousands of little spiders run riot in the small town. This wouldn't be too much of a problem, except that these "aren't ordinary spiders"; they're killers. The local pest exterminator has a go, but... So it's up to the Doc to save the town. —Rob Hartill
