Story
Peter Parker , a freelance photographer for the Daily Bugle , has been bitten by a radioactive spider and discovers that he has received superpowers such as super-strength, agility, and the ability to walk on walls and ceilings. When a mysterious hypnotist (an original character created specifically for the film), using telepathy, takes control of the minds of some people in order to rob banks and threatens to kill ten New Yorkers if the city does not pay him $ 50 million, Peter becomes a hero nicknamed Spider-Man, and tries to stop the devilish scheme of a con artist. The situation worsens when the villain captures the mind of Peter and his girlfriend Judy, including them in the number of ten victims. It also turns out that the hypnotist was Edward Byron himself. When hypnotized people prepared to jump from the heights and roofs of buildings at the command of the hypnotist, Peter frees himself because his control badge disconnects, hitting the metal railing. Spider-Man defeats the hypnotist and frees the rest from the control of the latter.

Filming process
The illustrious sequence in which Spider-Man crawls across the ceiling of the office and jumps to the wall was performed using a complex set of rigging and cables placed in paths hidden in the ceiling. Assault grabs lifted stuntman / stunt coordinator Fred Wow to the ceiling, then he made his way along the corridor using a slider, and the pressure in the wire lifted him up [1] . The scene in which Spider-Man swings on the web from building to building was extremely expensive and dangerous, and required two days of filming; so as not to repeat it several times, the same trick was shot by several cameras from different angles, in order to create additional frames, which were then used in the following episodes of the television series [1] [2] .
