Arachnicide (also known as L9 Commando and Spiders)[2] is a 2014 Italian made-for-television action horror film directed by Paolo Bertola and produced by Ruben Maria Soriquez.
Plot
After years of experimenting, a researcher succeeds in creating an incubator that accelerates plant and animal growth. The technology is controlled by a powerful criminal organisation and is being used to accelerate the growth of plants needed for manufacturing of illegal drugs and narcotics. To destroy the laboratories they operate, the United Nations organises an elite team of operatives known as the L9 Commandos.
The L9 Commandos are a task force composed of six of the best soldiers from different Special Forces Units. After successfully taking down the drug operation, the L9 Commandos are called on for an important mission in Albania. There, they discover that the incubator has created a group of colossal spiders.
