Mr. B.I.G. Bert I. Gordon produced and directed this screwy sci-fi tale about a high school teacher (Ed Kemmer from the Space Patrol kiddie television series) who joins his students in fighting an enormous, man-eating arachnid holed up in Los Angeles' Bronson Canyon. Sam Fuller vet Gene Roth (The Baron Of Arizona) is the local sheriff, and June Kenney (Bloodlust!) and Eugene Persson from the "Ma and Pa Kettle" series are the teen couple who first discover the giant creepy crawler. The "teen" band that wakes the temporarily comatose spider features guitar great James Burton from Elvis' TCB band. Ticket buyers anticipating a giant spider with human skull were probably disappointed.
