A black hole hits North Wisconsin and opens a door to other dimensions. Giant 15 meter spiders emerge from it, who have an appetite for human flesh! Two NASA scientists try to save the world.
The cult classic film, “The Giant Spider Invasion” filmed in 1975 in good ol’ Wisconsin, just got a reimagined “reboot” with new scenes and new F/X to the original film. Never in the history of Hollywood has a film been directed again by its original director 50 years later! 89 year old film legend Bill Rebane helmed this new iteration for a 2026 release!
This reimagined blockbuster, filmed in Wisconsin, is a loving homage to all our state has to offer: our culture, our landscape & our people! Starring Wisconsin’s very own Dan Davies, the No. 1 American Box Office Actor in the history of Nollywood. Dan’s films have been seen by over 50,000,000 people theatrically (Africa & Europe) and worldwide on Netflix & Hulu.
Both Dan Davies and Bill Rebane are scheduled to be there at the premiere on 10/2! With these two greats at the helm, coupled with an all-star production team, & cast (Including Aaron Yonda from “Chad Vader” fame) this reiteration is scarier, campier, creepier and leggier! Come join us as we hit the ground running on all 8 legs!
