TARANTULAS: THE DEADLY CARGO (FREEMANTLE)

I hadn't seen this TV movie since it was originally on in 1977. I found it to be creepy and gave me goosebumps, like most movies about spiders do.
Tom Atkins and Howard Hessman stars as two men who are flying a coffee shipment from central america to the USA and their plane crashes in a small California town unleashing many 8 legged horrors that nobody knew was on the plane.
Soon townspeople start dying from mysterious spider bites and the local doctor plyaed by Pat Hingle, is soon investigating why people are dying.
this was made at a time when TV movies were something other than movies about abusive husbands and alcoholic women. A good one.
