This movie! It's directed by Bert I. Gordon- and you folks know who Bert I Gordon is. Mr. BIG! So it's a version of H.G. Welles 'Food of the Gods'. But Welles would pick up a Tommy gun if he saw this!  BounceGiggle
I'm not saying that's a bad thing. I love this movie! It's got Ron Howard, Mickey Rooney Jr. ( who looks just like his Dad-which is somehow very creepy), and, best of all- the girl who washed her car in COOL HAND LUKE- Joy Harmon!

Which gives me an excuse to play this-!

The movie is awful, but charming.

Tarantino used the theme song for Death Proof (2007)

It's more like a Beach Party movie...with teens dancing and stupid comedy. It pretty lame brain stuff.
And yeah- I don't need snide puppets to tell me how stupid a movie is or isn't.

Oh- the clip I played isn't from VILLAGE OF THE GIANTS. That's from COOL HAND LUKE! And that movie is a classic!

Yes.  If JOY HARMON has a claim to movie fame it's that appearance!

She's the main reason I watch this movie!

I don't know know if that's a DVd cover of something but, looking at the original poster...


Seems liked overly-crowed poster design follows this movie.

That being said, I'd gladly trade places with that guy.

"That guy" is JOHNNY CRAWFORD (Lucas' son Mark in TV show "The Rifleman").

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.

    Lesson Learned:
    • Osmosis: os·mo·sis (oz-mo'sis, os-) n., 1. When a bird eats something.
