The actual spider actor was manipulated with little air jets to move about just so on the miniature set that built for it.
Acromagalia does, or rather can, cause facial distortions that are considered severe, but not cause have been reported as severe as the cases shown in the film.
Professor Demer predicts that by the year 2000 (and keep in mind, he presents this as dire) the world's population would be more than 3 and 1/2 billion people--in fact, the population 12 years ago now, was closer to 6.7 billion!
Clint Eastwood has a bit part in this film as part of the jet squadron that is bombing the huge spider.
