Featuring a creepy rendition of a familiar nursery rhyme, the psychologically harrowing creature feature Itsy Bitsy pits a single mother against an eight-legged critter big enough to cause nightmares for life... if you're lucky enough to survive. Directed by Micah Gallo, executive produced by Cory Neal, and co-written by Daily Dead contributor Jason Alvino, Itsy Bitsy was recently acquired by Shout! Studios for North American distribution, and now the unsettling trailer has been revealed, offering plenty of nightmare fuel to anyone who has even a hint of arachnophobia.

Following its premiere on Bloody Disgusting, you can watch the official Itsy Bitsy trailer below.

Directed and produced by Micah Gallo from a screenplay by Gallo, J. Bryan Dick, and Jason Alvino, Itsy Bitsy stars Elizabeth Roberts, Bruce Davison, Denise Crosby, Arman Darbo, and Chloe Perrin.
