Based on the compelling novel by Patrick McGrath, who also adapts the screenplay, the gothic and fantastical world that director David Cronenberg conjures up with "Spider" immerses the audience into the depths of a deeply disturbed boy who has crafted a reality all his own; a reality that takes him to the very limits of his faltering sanity.
Ralph Fiennes is perfectly cast as Spider, a man who suffers from schizophrenia and who fights an ongoing battle with his jumbled memories of childhood.
