THE PLOT:

When a alien spacecraft and a US fighter Jet collide. It releases an alien specimen of Spider. Now a scientific team has arrived to find out what kind of spider is killing the natives. But the pilot is only interesting in missing Fighter Pilot which is her brother. Now trapped on the island due to magnetic interference, they are being stalked by arachnid hybrids. Plus the mother of them all, a giant spider.

THE OPINION:

A very well crafted monster movie, although the human characters were a tad weak and I would have liked to learned more about the alien experiment that caused this.
