Writer-director Kiah Roache-Turner is here to talk about his latest feature, STING, and how he wanted to make a fairy tale story… with unusually large spiders.

Yeah, spiders, man.

Kiah also talks about writing the characters to fit familiar archetypes from fairy tales, of getting Richard Taylor from WETA Digital to help with the design of and practical effects implementation of the spider Sting, and more.

STING opens wide in North American Theaters April 12, and I truly hope there will be a blu-ray filled with behind-the-scenes extras, deleted scenes and commentary.
