General Spider

The "General Spider" is the main antagonist of Arachnophobia and was the true leader of the semi-titular Spiders that acted as the supporting antagonists - he also had a mate in the form of the Queen Spider but it was the "General Spider" that took the role of main protector for the Spiders as well as the one responsible for the abnormally aggressive actions the swarm took in regards to humanity.

The "General Spider" was much larger than the other Spiders (rivalled only by the Queen) and was also the most intelligent and arguably the most malicious of the swarm as he was actively seeking to murder those that got in his way (though it was likely for what he saw was the survival of his offspring).
