Big a** Spider Plot Synopsis:

Once more, a failed military experiment spawns an abomination. This time, a not-so-itchy-bitchy spider finds its way into the silent morgue of an L.A. hospital, and since then, the mutated creature keeps getting bigger and bigger. Now, it's up to an unproven hero, the neighbourhood's exterminator and bug expert, Alex Mathis, to enter into the spider's mind, and save the city--and perhaps, the world--from an ever-growing menace that threatens to level everything in its path. It's hairy. It's hungry. It's the mother of all spiders. Can Alex stop the eight-legged behemoth before the U.S. Army takes over?


Big a** Spider comes from the same man who brought us Gravedancers a few years back, Mike Mendez. The horror film focuses on an exterminator out for the biggest, baddest and meanest bug on earth with the aid of his Latino security guard. Together they must kill a giant spider who has escaped from a military lab and is now rampaging in Los Angeles.
