The Black Stallion Returns


            Robert "Rack" Hansen (William Shatner), a veterinarian in the rural town of Verde Valley, Arizona, receives an urgent call from a local farmer, Walter Colby (Woody Strode). Colby is upset because his prize calf has become sick for no apparent reason, and brings the animal to Hansen's laboratory. Hansen examines the calf, which dies shortly afterward. Hansen tells Colby he cannot explain what made the animal so ill so quickly, but takes samples of the calf's blood to a university lab in Flagstaff.A few days later, Diane Ashley (Tiffany Bolling), an arachnologist, arrives looking for Hansen. Ashley tells Hansen that the calf was killed by a massive dose of spider venom, which Hansen greets with skepticism. Undaunted, Ashley tells him the problem is serious and that she wishes to examine the animal's carcass and the area where it became sick. Hansen escorts Ashley to Colby's farm. Moments after they arrive, Colby's wife, Birch (Altovise Davis), discovers their dog is dead. Ashley performs a quick chemical test on the dog's carcass and concludes that like the calf, it died from a massive injection of spider venom. Hansen is incredulous, until Colby states that he recently found a massive "spider hill" on a back section of his farmland. He takes Hansen and Ashley to the hill, which is covered with tarantulas. Ashley theorizes that the tarantulas are converging together due to the heavy use of pesticides, which are eradicating their natural food supply. In order to survive, the spiders are joining forces to attack and eat larger animals.Hansen and Ashley return to the Colby farm. As the scientists and the Colbys are walking past a barn, a bull stampedes out; it is being attacked by tarantulas. Ashley notes that the spiders likely will not be afraid to attack people either. Colby douses the spider hill with gasoline and lights it on fire, seemingly destroying the spider menace. However, many of the spiders escape out of a tunnel. Colby is attacked in his truck the next day, sending it over the side of a hill and killing him. Hansen happens upon the accident scene and helps the sheriff, Gene Smith (David McLean), examine the wreckage. Colby's body is found encased in a cocoon of spider webs. Meanwhile, Ashley is notified by her colleagues that a sample of venom from one of the spiders is five times more toxic than normal. Hansen is then told by the sheriff that several more spider hills have been located on Colby's property.Hansen, Ashley and the sheriff examine the hills along with the mayor of Camp Verde (Roy Engel), who orders the sheriff to spray the hills and the surrounding countryside with a pesticide. Ashley protests, arguing that pesticide use is what caused the problem to begin with and that the town would be better off using birds and rats (tarantulas' enemies in nature) to eradicate them. The mayor dismisses the idea, fearing that having a large number of spiders and rats all over the countryside will scare away patrons of the annual county fair. A crop duster is enlisted to spray the pesticide. Once the pilot is airborne, he is attacked by tarantulas, and crashes the plane before he can disperse the spray.The spiders begin their assault on the local residents, killing Birch and Hansen's sister-in-law, Terri (Marcy Lafferty). Hansen arrives at their home and rescues Terri's daughter, Linda from the spiders. Hansen and Ashley take Linda to the Washburn Lodge. They consult with the sheriff, who tells them that the spiders are everywhere and Camp Verde is cut off from the outside world. Smith drives into town, while Hansen and the other survivors at the lodge plan to load up an RV and escape. However, the spiders trap them in the lodge, and they barricade themselves inside. Meanwhile, Smith arrives in Camp Verde and finds the town under siege by the spiders. Smith tries to escape, but is killed when another car crashes into a support post under the town's water tower, causing it to fall on his vehicle.Back at the lodge, the power goes out, and Hansen is forced to venture into the lodge's basement to change a blown fuse. He succeeds, but is besieged by spiders who break through one of the basement windows, by using their combined weight. He makes it upstairs just in time to be saved by Ashley.The film concludes the next day, with the survivors rigging up a radio receiver and listening for news of the attacks. To their surprise, the radio broadcast doesn't mention the attacks, indicating that the outside world is oblivious to what has happened. Hansen pries off the boards from one of the lodge's windows, and discovers that the entire building is encased in a giant web cocoon. The camera pulls back, and all of Camp Verde is encased in cocoons as well.
    

Kingdom of the Spiders


            In 1840 Idaho territory, the Native American Blackfoot Siksika tribe is nearly decimated by smallpox. A white mountain man named Guthrie (Leife Erickson) encourages Blackfoot Chief Winterhawk (Michael Dante) to initiate trade with white settlers, since they have medicine that will save his people. Although Winterhawk has remained a mystery to the white community, he guides his braves to a nearby homestead.At the homestead, beautiful Clayanna Finley (Dawn Wells) and her younger brother, Cotton (Chuck Pierce Jr.), prepare to visit their father on a journey guided by their wealthy, missionary uncle, Will Finley (Elisa Cook Jr.). The locals are astonished to behold Winterhawk and welcome him to the camp. Speaking in broken English, Winterhawk declares his intention to trade for the smallpox remedy, but the onlookers back away in fear of getting the disease. One man agrees to lead the chief to a medicine source, but two outlaws named Gates (L.Q. Jones) and Scoby (Dennis Fimple) ambush Winterhawk along the trail. In the ensuing fight, two Indians are shot dead; however, Winterhawk gets away.That evening, the homesteaders prepare for Winterhawk's revenge. Will Finley argues in favor of going after Gates and Scoby, to bring them to Winterhawk, but another man warns that the chief will not negotiate.The next day, Clayanna and Cotton wander in a field discussing God as Winterhawk gallops toward the homestead; two Indians capture the siblings at the chief's behest. The white settlers give chase on horseback, but the Indians get away after a standoff.Sometime later, the men appeal for help from Winterhawk's confidante, Guthrie, who is married to a Blackfoot woman named Pale Flower. Guthrie reports that Clayanna and Cotton have likely been embraced as members of the Blackfoot tribe, but their uncle, Finley, is fearful of their fate. Guthrie feels responsible for sending Winterhawk to trade with the white men and agrees to join the homesteaders on their rescue mission.Meanwhile, Winterhawk tells Clayanna and Cotton that their abduction has settled the score; two Blackfoot men were killed, and in return two homesteaders have been taken. Clayanna is convinced she and her brother will be rescued, but they slowly become accustomed to Blackfoot life.Back at Guthrie's cabin, the outlaws Gates and Scoby search for the homesteader posse and attack Pale Flower (Sacheen Littlefeather), who is now living alone in her husband's absence; Gates rapes and kills the Indian maiden. Elsewhere, Winterhawk receives word that Guthrie and the settlers are on his trail as he moves toward Canada. Although he believes Guthrie is trustworthy, he orders his men to go after the pursuers. However, the braves are no match for the homesteaders shotguns, and several Indians are killed. One survivor shares the news with Winterhawk, but falls dead in a river, and Clayanna goes after the brave. Winterhawk is moved by her compassion and cuts her and Cotton's hands free from their restraints.Months later as the first snow of the winter season begins to fall, Clayanna promises Winterhawk riches and amnesty in return for freedom. Winterhawk is impressed by her courage, but refuses to release the siblings. Elsewhere, Guthrie warns his posse that the recent Blackfoot standoff has put them in great danger, and the group is ambushed the following day. A mountain man named Big Smith (Seamon Glass) is shot in the back with an arrow, but he kills two more Indians. The settlers bury their fallen comrade and resume their rescue mission.However, Gates and Scoby are still on their trail with stolen horses, including one belonging to Pale Feather. When they try to sell the horses at a remote saloon, the owner, McClusky (Arthur Hunnicutt), recognizes Pale Feather's horse and reports the news to Guthrie. Realizing Pale Feather is dead, Guthrie demands to know the culprits whereabouts, and McClusky directs him to Johnsons Pass.Despite the snowy terrain, Guthrie tracks down the outlaws, injures Gates with a gunshot, and takes the men hostage. Elsewhere, Cotton learns that Winterhawk's wife died long ago of smallpox, "the white mans disease". Cotton apologizes to the chief, then pleases his sister with the news that Winterhawk is unattached. The Indians continue their trek north, but Winterhawk is distressed by his failure to trade for a smallpox remedy. He sees Clayanna and Cotton as his last hope to bargain for the white man's medicine. However, an old warrior warns that the hostages will only provoke further violence.Sometime later, the settlers Indian informant seizes the old warrior at knife point to broker an exchange with Winterhawk, but the aged man suddenly dies. When Winterhawk realizes he has been betrayed, the informant Indian is tortured with a burning log. Guthrie and the settlers watch from afar and shoot the persecuted Indian dead to relieve him from pain. Winterhawk finds their camp and approaches with Clayanna and Cotton. The Indian chief thinks Guthrie has betrayed him, too, but the mountain man declares that he has acted in the Winterhawks favor, bringing him the detained murderers, Gates and Scoby.Winterhawk offers to trade Clayanna and Cotton for medicine, and vows to fight the homesteaders if they disagree. In the ensuing battle, Cotton runs after Winterhawk, whom he now considers a friend. The boy is accidentally impaled by one of the homesteaders spears. As Clayanna screams in horror, Winterhawk removes the weapon and Uncle Finley is reunited with his injured nephew. Clayanna and Cotton are set free, and Gates is left behind to die in the cold with Scoby's recently deceased corpse. As Winterhawk gallops away on the horizon, Clayanna realizes her place is now with him. She leaves her family and guides her horse to join the warrior chief.
