本片是美国50年代一部优秀的科幻片。导演Jack Arnold运用特效,让一只小小的蜘蛛在银屏上变成一只体形庞大的塔兰图拉毒蛛。影片中的塔兰图拉毒蛛是一只十分可怕的怪兽,它四处破坏,但始终免不了灭亡的命运。 经典科幻片,强烈推荐!In the Arizona desert, Professor Gerald Deemer is experimenting with growth hormones in the hopes of finding a way to increase the world's food supply. His partner in the project was recently found dead in the desert, suffering from a disease that normally takes years to advance but, in his case, seems to have afflicted him in only a few days. The local doctor, Matt Hastings, is puzzled by the strange case and, with Deemer's recently arrived (and very pretty) assistant, Stephanie Clayton, tries to figure out what is going on. When cattle remains are found in the countryside, evidence points to a giant tarantula as the culprit.
