A légierő egyik lopakodója nyomtalanul eltűnik az egyik sziget közelében. Néhány hónap múlva különös halálesetek történnek, a szigeten élő bennszülöttek mind meghalnak. Egy biológusokból és kommandósokból álló missziót küldenek a helyszínre, hogy kiderítsék, mi áll a szörnyűségek hátterében. A csoport a szigeten egy óriás gyilkos pókfajjal találja magát szemben, amelynek hihetetlenül gyors az evolúciója és soha nem látott ütemben szaporodik. Hamarosan az is kiderül, hogy a mutációt egy idegen organizmus okozta. (RTL Klub)

I was quite curious, because this spider horror film is preceded by the most opulent reputation of all anti-movies. It was a futile effort and, more importantly, a futile sacrifice of my precious time. Arachnid is a bad movie pure and simple, one that mindlessly recycles a bunch of familiar motifs, applying grotesque digital effects that wouldn't scare a five-year-old child. And if the first half, which works exclusively with hints of impending danger, is at least an easygoing adventure with an attractive pilot and a sexy blonde, the action-packed ending is ridiculous, static, unadorned and above all completely bloodless, without any hint of a self-conscious guilty pleasure nod. I'm ignoring the alien plot completely, it's ultimately redundant anyway, and I'm sending one star along with a warning that the distributor's blurb is more horrifying and exciting than the film itself – just don't be fooled like me ;) 20%

Arachnid isn't as bad a film as the databases make it out to be. It's just a movie about spiders, not very memorable ones, and doesn't stand out in terms of plot, but as a B-movie, in my opinion, it's not offensive. I've seen much worse movies that didn't even have the good special effects aspect, in which Arachnid doesn't excel in every shot, but it can be quite pleasing at times. This is not deserving of a Boo! rating.
