TAGLINES : "Bullets Can't Stop It! Dynamite Can't Kill It!" "Giant spider strikes! Crawling terror 100 feet high!" - A spider escapes from an isolated Arizona desert laboratory experimenting in gigantism and grows to tremendous size as it wreaks havoc on the local inhabitants. In the Arizona desert, Professor Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll) is experimenting with growth hormones in the hopes of finding a way to increase the world's food supply. His partner in the project was recently found dead in the desert, suffering from a disease that normally takes years to advance, but, in his case, seems to have afflicted him in only a few days. The local doctor, Matt Hastings (John Agar), is puzzled by the strange case and, with Deemer's recently arrived (and very pretty) assistant, Stephanie "Steve" Clayton (Mara Corday), tries to figure out what is going on. When cattle remains are found in the countryside, evidence points to a giant tarantula as the culprit. CAST includes John Agar, Mara Corday, Leo G. Carroll, Nestor Paiva, Ross Elliott, Clint Eastwood (as jet fighter pilot), Edwin Rand, Raymond Bailey, Hank Patterson, Bert Holland. Steve Darrell, Bert Holland, Dee Carroll. BEHIND THE SCENES TRIVIA :Tarantula was the fourth biggest film at the U.S. box office in December 1955, earning 1.1 million. Second uncredited theatrical movie of Clint Eastwood (Jet Squadron Leader). His first being Revenge of the Creature (1955). The spider that portrayed the giant tarantula later appeared in The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957) as the spider threatening the shrinking man. The tarantula was an actual live spider. Air jets were used to make it move in the desired way over a miniature landscape.
