This astronaut crashes on a mysterious planet full of tiny little folks. So naturally, due to the gravity or something, he shrinks down to their size and winds up in a love triangle with a couple of the native ladies. One native dude takes issue with this inter-species romanticizing which leads to some conflict. Also there's some aliens that look like they escaped form a Mexican monster movie running around(played by James Bond's own Jaws himself, Richard Kiel). This one feels way more like a 50s movie than anything from the 60s but it does really illuminate how much that decade changed from the early part to the end. Pretty dumb goofy stuff that schlock mavens will probably find just mildly entertaining.
This film was apparently popular enough to warrant it's own comic book adaption!:
This is one of those movies I don't own, but rather enjoy watching on TV from time to time.
ReplyDeleteYeah, it's not really a necessity to own this one but also not a terrible watch.
