Horrors of Spider Island

A 1960 West German horror film directed by Fritz Böttger, also known as Ein Toter hing im Netz and It's Hot in Paradise. Nightclub owner Gary Webster (Alexander D'Arcy) is interviewing dancers for his exotic troupe in New York and flies with several of them to Singapore. Their plane crashes into the Pacific, and the survivors reach a deserted island where they discover a dead man hanging in a giant spider's web. Gary is bitten by a mutant spider and transforms into a murderous spider-creature, terrorizing the women as they await rescue. The film was released in the US in 1962 and later featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000.
