In Arachnophobia, terror crawls into the small town of Canaima, California, as a deadly species of spider from the Amazon is accidentally unleashed.

When a local photographer, John, dies mysteriously, the town begins to realize that something far more sinister is lurking. Dr. James Atherton, an entomologist, is called in to investigate and uncovers the horrifying truth: an aggressive breed of spider has infiltrated the area, and they’re breeding rapidly.

The spiders, initially small and seemingly harmless, begin to multiply at an alarming rate. What follows is a spine-chilling fight for survival as the arachnids invade homes, schools, and businesses, creating chaos at every turn. Dr. Atherton teams up with Ross Jennings, a family doctor and arachnophobe, to uncover the spiders’ breeding ground and stop the infestation before it reaches catastrophic levels.

Arachnophobia masterfully blends horror and humor, delivering both tense, nail-biting moments and unexpected comedic relief. As the spiders wreak havoc, Ross must confront his worst fear to protect his family and the town, leading to a thrilling and unexpected showdown. With its blend of suspense, humor, and real-life terror, Arachnophobia keeps viewers on the edge of their seats, making them second-guess every corner, every shadow, and every tiny creature.
