Tarántula (1955)
Un científico es acusado del crimen de otros dos compañeros. Pronto descubren que la responsable de las terribles muertes es una tarántula gigante. Muertes posteriores hacen que el doctor Hastings ponga todo su empeño en acabar con la vida del venenoso animal, que es el resultado de un desgraciado experimento científico para intentar acelerar el crecimiento en los animales, y que amenaza con sembrar el pánico en esa zona desértica de Arizona.
