The Australian creature feature written & directed by Kiah Roache-Turner with visual FX from the Oscar-winning Weta Workshop will crawl onto Blu-ray on July 30. Digital will arrive on May 28.

The horror film about a giant mutant spider stars Alyla Browne ('The Lost Flowers of Alice Hart', 'Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga', 'Sonic the Hedgehog 3'), Penelope Mitchell ('Hellboy') and Ryan Corr ('Holding the Man'), and is rated R for violence, bloody images and language.

After raising an unnervingly talented spider in secret, 12-year-old Charlotte (Alyla Browne) must face the facts about her pet—and fight for her family’s survival—when the once-charming creature rapidly transforms into a giant, flesh-eating monster.
