Bert I. Gordon wrote, directed and produced Earth Vs The Spider. Teenagers, rock'n roll, hot rods, and a very scary spider. Use of the spectacular Carlsbad Caverns of New Mexico as a cave in the small town of River Falls was not a good idea. Tranquilizing the spider with DDT and stashing it in the local high school proves disastrous! Naturally the creature wakes up when the local band starts rocking! Click for other version of poster
