'Love, Death + Robots' "Spider Rose" Makes Major Change to Source Material

When it comes to Love, Death + Robots, one can always count on the anthology series to crank out episodes that are equal parts gorgeous, grotesque, and gut-wrenching. However, Season 4's standout Episode 3, "Spider Rose," does more than push visual boundaries. It boldly flips the ending of its source material on its head, changing a gruesome act of survival into a twisted form of mercy. Based on Bruce Sterling's short story from Schismatrix Plus, "Spider Rose" adapts a slice of his richly imagined Shaper/Mechanist universe, where biotech-modified elites square off against cybernetic loners in a futuristic Cold War of evolution.
