ComedyHorrorThriller109 min

After a deadly spider stows away from the South American jungle in a coffin bound for California, its offspring begin turning a quiet small town into a string of unexplained deaths. Jeff Daniels is the newly arrived local doctor, already struggling to settle his family into their new home when patients start showing up with mysterious bites. As the danger spreads from attic corners to backyard sheds, John Goodman’s swaggering exterminator charges in with heavy-duty chemicals and a very different approach to bedside manner.
