Description: These Spiders were mutated for war by the Soviet military on a satellite. The satellite eventually crashed into the Earth (New York, USA), and humans soon found themselves being used as egg sacks by the quickly multiplying and growing arachnids. The Queen Spider was the largest of them all, but it is not known if they can grow even bigger if left unmolested.
