Description

Killer Kelly (WWE NXT, TNA iMPACT) and David Svoboda star in this nightmarish cautionary tale of the grotesque lust that lurks under the surface of a troubled Young Man, and what happens when that is left unchecked. After witnessing an entrancing dance performance, the psyche of the Young Man begins to fall apart through a series of strange encounters, culminating in an unexpected, and horrifying meeting. Arachnid features a debut score by Juno Award Winning musician, Kevin Comeau of the Canadian rock duo Crown Lands
