SPOILER WARNING: Do not read if you haven’t seen “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” currently playing in theaters. The first time a spider shows up in “Venom: Let There Be Carna…
The first time a spider shows up in “Venom: Let There Be Carnage,” it’s smashed dead by the movie’s villain, Cletus Kasady . While in the middle of penning an unhinged invitation to reporter Eddie Brock to come see his execution, a large spider lands on the notecard on which Cletus is writing, and the notorious serial killer thinks nothing of slamming his hand down to kill it.
Other than Cletus’ spider smackdown, there’s no mention of arachnids of any kind throughout “Let There Be Carnage,” either — that is, until the post-credits scene. For many audiences, those final beats in the “Let There Be Carnage” post-credits scene many not have even been audible amid the raucous cheers from fans realizing what it all means: Holland’s Spider-Man and Hardy’s Venom can finally exist in the same movie.
As fans of Spidey comics know, Venom belongs in their company. In fact, at various times, Venom has been a member of the Spidey villain team known as the Sinister Six. Other members have included, yes, Doc Ock, Green Goblin and Electro — as well as other established Spidey movie villains like Vulture and Sandman .
