Kingdom of the Spiders

"You could be the next victim!"

A 1977 horror film starring William Shatner, in which hordes of tarantulas begin swarming and attacking the residents of a small Arizona town after their natural food supplies give out. Perhaps most remembered today for the gruesome spider-victim FX, and the  ending. Shatner is also notable, this being one of those rare times when he actually makes an effort in the acting department, playing a flawed and even somewhat multifaceted character.

This film contains examples of:

 * Attack of the Killer Whatever
 * Attack of the Town Festival
 * Big OMG
 * Black Dude Dies First: Poor Colby.
 * Cobweb Jungle
 * Cue the Sun
 * Dangerous Windows
 * Empathy Doll Shot: Used when Terry dies.
 * Hot Scientist
 * Impending Doom POV
 * Infant Immortality: Played straight and averted.
 * ~It's Quiet... Too Quiet~
 * Jump Scare
 * Kill It With Fire
 * Love Triangle
 * Peek a Boo Corpse
 * Psycho Strings: Used on the Peek a Boo Corpse scenes.
 * Recycled Soundtrack: Most of the music was borrowed from old The Twilight Zone episodes, mainly the work of a young Jerry Goldsmith.
 * Screaming Woman: Averted; Shatner does more screaming than lead Tiffany Bolling.
 * Screams Like a Little Girl: The cropduster pilot.
 * Too Dumb to Live: Birch is armed and there's a spider on her hand. She then shoots the spider and her hand.
 * When the main characters board themselves inside a house it is clearly established that spiders are everywhere. So naturally everyone checks out what's wrong with the air conditioning when it starts malfunctioning.
 * The Vietnam War: Robert's brother died there.
