| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Eight Legged Freaks |
|---|
A man driving his truck filled with toxic barrels crashes. One of the barrels gets into the water and soon the insects surrounding the water begin to grow larger. At first people don't seem to notice that pets have gone missing and weird things have been going on, but soon the whole town realizes that giant spiders are invading. The townspeople take refuge in a mall and try to fight off the spiders.
