Curse of the Black Widow (1977)

Beneath the sheen of a full moon, an ancient legend stirs to life, weaving an eerie tale of a woman morphing into a colossal black widow spider, hunting unsuspecting victims in the night. At the heart of this chilling thriller are twin sisters, Lee and Laura, whose lives are shadowed by a string of unnerving deaths. Their lives intertwine with Mark Higbie, a brash private detective hot on the trail of a chilling murderer, whose male victims are grotesquely ensnared in silken cocoons. As the body count rises, a tenacious cop pairs with Higbie, delving into the mystery shrouded in a web of deceit and death. The duo's pursuit leads them to the pulsating heart of Los Angeles, where the true identity of the killer emerges - a woman who was marked by the venomous bite of black widow spiders in her childhood. However, the plot thickens as the narrative spins into the complex realm of psychological disorders. A case of multiple-personality disorder surfaces, adding a deeper layer of intrigue to the already tangled story. With every full moon, the line between human and arachnid blurs, creating a whirlpool of suspense and horror. 'Curse of the Black Widow' is a captivating fusion of mystery, thriller, and horror, where reality is ensnared in the sticky threads of legend, and the terror of the predator lurks in the shadows of the human psyche.
