A DNA experiment on a rare breed of spider is taking place on a NASA space shuttle, when a freak meteor shower engulfs the shuttle, causing everything to go horribly wrong. A lone surviving arachnid is found on the ship and watched over in a secret location deep in the California desert. The problem is that the spider is NOT alone! A curious reporter must now survive, escape and warn everyone before the spiders find their way out of the desert. Laughable, gory and rubbarsh.
