* ''[[Film/KingKong2005 The World of Kong: A Natural History of Skull Island]]'' talks about how the creatures encountered on Skull Island came to exist. One notable example are the giant worms that ate 2 crew members. These disgusting things were originally parasites found in dinosaurs who either died near the sulphuric hot springs on the island or pooped in there. The parasitic worms from the digestive track were well adapted to living in the nutrient rich pools and grew to enormous size. Their new size allowed these vermin to expand their carnivorous menu, as they're no longer restricted to living inside a dinosaurs gut.

* ''VideoGame/LethalCompany'' has its fair share of deadly insectoid aliens. Hoarding Bugs are fat beetle-like {{Bandit Mook}}s that collect scrap they find around and protect their nests if a player disturbs them, Snare Fleas hang around ceilings and drop on players in an attempt to suffocate them, and of course there are the [[GiantSpider Bunker Spiders]].

* Australia's infamous huntsman spiders, which boast leg spans of up to one foot. Luckily, the species humans most frequently run into, [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delena_cancerides Delena cancerides]], are not aggressive towards humans, although meeting one can be slightly surprising. They tend to happily eat roaches, flies, mosquitoes, and other pests in a house.

* ''Literature/UniversalMonsters'': In book 1, shortly after meeting Dr. Dunn, Bob comes under attack by a swarm of oversized ticks. Devin Chavarria, who's becoming a vampire courtesy of Dracula, later claims to have sent them; it ultimately turns out she was lying and they were actually a shapeshifted Dracula (as revealed when more giant ticks later turn up in his base of operations and then turn back into him when Captain Bob starts smashing them).
