Never before has a warehouse full of oranges been so sinister and probably, nay, hopefully, never again. Tom Atkins isn't in it long, but you better believe the first time you see him he's getting a face full of some beautiful woman who literally leaves never to reappear after said lip service.

As the movie itself points out, these are not really "tarantulas" at all but are in fact "banana spiders." Although that doesn't sound menacing it would have been truth in advertising because this is just as terrifying as "BANANA SPIDERS!" sounds. Early on this suffers from the dumb but once the real plot unfolds it's pretty close to real life with characters logically concluding these spiders ain't right and roll up their sleeves to deal with the hairy hoard in a workman like fashion. THE END.
