Chris McCormick (Arquette) returns to his home town to help re-open the town’s mines, only to discover that the exotic spider sanctuary on the outskirts of town has been affected by toxic waste dumping in the water supply which has turned the spiders into giant mutant killers who have taken up home in the mines and have started kidnapping people to feed to their queen!

This was a very entertaining kids movie, with some scarier moments for the grownups. There were some good characters in the movie, and the plot flowed comfortably enough without any points where you just wished it would get on with it. My only problem was with one of the end scenes, but you can check that out and decide for yourself.
