About
A rogue scientist near a small desert town arouses the suspicion of the town's doctor when his lab assistant is found dead from a case of acromegaly, which took only four days to develop. As the doctor investigates, aided by the scientist's new female assistant, they discover that something is devouring local cattle and humans in increasingly large quantities.
Forget the tiny garden pests usually found in creature features; this nightmare involves a mountain-sized arachnid terrorizing the desert Southwest. The practical scale of the monster creates a genuine sense of dread that modern CGI often fails to replicate.
