Mesa of Lost Women
A race of deadly spider-women luring men to their death!
Directed by Herbert Tevos, Ron Ormond
Produced by Ron Ormond Productions, Howco Productions Inc.
A lurid 1950s creature-feature built on body horror and mad-science transgression, where giant spider-women and mutated men populate a remote desert laboratory.
A mad scientist, Dr. Aranya (Jackie Coogan), has created giant spiders in his Mexican lab in Zarpa Mesa to create a race of superwomen by injecting spiders with human pituitary growth hormones. Women develop miraculous regenerative powers, but men mutate into disfigured dwarves. Spiders grow to human size and intelligence.
