Overview
The Spider Labyrinth is a 1988 Italian horror film directed by Gianfranco Giagni.
Production
Prior to working on The Spider Labyrinth, director Gianfrano Giagni in radio and television since the mid-1970s. Along with directing music videos he created the music program and made the short film Giallo e nero. Producer Tonino Cervi liked Giagni's short and offered him a job to direct his first feature, the horror film The Spider Labyrinth.
The original script for the film was developed by Cervi, Riccardo Aragno and Cesare Frugoni which dated a few years before production started. Giagni felt the script was a bit dated, and got Gianfranco Manfredi in with him to give the film a more modern framing. Their changes in the script changed the location from Venice to Budapest.

The Spider Labyrinth was distributed in Italy by Medusa/Penta Film on August 25, 1988.
