An American treasure =(
RIP Giant Spider from The Giant Spider Invasion. The historic movie icon, made from scrap metal welded to a Volkswagon Beetle chassis, has been rotting in a lot in Wisconsin – at a property on County Highway J between Irma and Gleason in Lincoln County. That is, until it disappeared, prompting a police investigation, news reports, and the sad news that Schultz Recycling in Merrill had taken parts of the vehicle as scrap metal weeks ago. Thus, the giant spider is dead, though it can take solace that it outlived many of its costars, even it it was nothing more than a rusty skeleton.
The Giant Spider Invasion was released in 1975. Directed by Bill Rebane, the film gained a new following when it was featured on Mystery Science Theater 3000.
