What happens

The Itsy Bitsy Spider is a 1992 American animated short film directed by Matthew O'Callaghan, and written by Michael O'Donoghue and Jerry Rapp. It stars Frank Welker as the titular spider, alongside Thora Birch, Jim Carrey, and Andrea Martin. Based on the eponymous rhyme, the short film was released along with the film Bebe's Kids. It was rated PG by the MPAA for sci-fi cartoon violence. It is a family-friendly version of The Terminator and RoboCop, and was the basis for the television series of the same name, which was aired on the USA Network. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
