Een gevaarlijke spin reist per ongeluk mee vanuit de jungle naar Amerika. Het beest vindt een plaats om te broeden in de schuur van de nieuwkomende dokter in het dorp, Ross Jennings. Al snel vermenigvuldigt de spin zich en de spinnen zaaien dood en verderf in het dorp. Aan Ross Jennings en de plaatselijke insectenbestrijder de taak om hier een eind aan te maken.
Nee, helaas is Arachnophobia nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
