Description As usual there are spoilers ahead! I would love to know what you make of the ending of this film if you watched it. Best place to do that is on social media. Threads, Instagram and Bluesky. 1957 USA seems like a country on the brink of huge social change. (Of course, I say this with the benefit of hindsight and with a deep affection for the decade that was just around the corner.) But so many of the events of the year are an indication of what's to come. The Civil Rights Act of 1957 was the first of many legislative attempts to bring federal protection for African Americans in the face of growing dissatisfaction in the South towards desegregation of schools and society. 1957 was the year the Little Rock Nine were enrolled into a previously all white school. The photos of nine black children often surrounded by angry and jeering crowds and the presence of US paratroopers are staggering. It is the year Enovid was approved by the FDA for menstrual problems. Two years later it would become the first FDA approved contraceptive pill. And in October 1957 Russia launched Sputnik into orbit causing a shock across the USA. Despite anxiety about their biggest rival the country was not ready for such a display of technological accomplishment. The year prior in 1956 Jack Arnold (who had become somewhat disillusioned by the increasingly schlocky independent sci-fi films of the late 50s) was convinced to return to Universal to make The Incredible Shrinking Man. Richard Matheson's story is an unusual examination of a man losing stature both physically and socially. Many consider this Jack Arnold's greatest science fiction film. We have two wonderful guests to explain why that might be. Scott Higgins is a Professor of Film at Wesleyan University as well as being the Curator of the Wesleyan Cinema Archives. He has written multiple books and essays about film. Ian Scott is a Professor of American Film and History at The University of Manchester. He has written extensively about politics and film in Hollywood.

As usual there are spoilers ahead! Description Forbidden Planet (1956) is a somewhat overlooked 50s classic. Although it often fails to make lists of the greatest sci-fi films of all time it has come across often in my written research and when speaking to guests. It's a film that not only seems to excite avid fans of sci-fi cinema but also influenced some of the genre's heavy hitters like both Star Wars and Star Trek. A costly, slick, colourful movie which takes a break from the red scare themes and invites us to delve into the dangers of the human mind. We mention Isaac Asimov's Three Laws of Robotics in the episode which are: 1. A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm. 2. A robot must obey orders given it by human beings except where such orders would conflict with the First Law. 3. A robot must protect its own existence as long as such protection does not conflict with the First or Second Law. The fourth law also known as Law Zero or Zeroth Law is: A robot cannot cause harm to mankind or, by inaction, allow mankind to come to harm.I have two amazing guests to help unravel the threads in this space opera. The ExpertsJay Telotte is Professor Emeritus of film and media studies at Georgia Tech. He has written/edited numerous books and articles about science fiction film including the 2023 book Selling Science Fiction Cinema. Glyn Morgan is Curatorial Lead at the Science Museum in London and a science fiction scholar.

It is worth checking platforms like Tubi and Pluto if they are available.
I'm thinking about ecclesiology today. Rarely do. But a combination of J.B. Priestley's "low anthropology", a couple of recent lightning bolts from outside space and (present) time, and a fresh glimpse of the touching statue of "The Compassionate Christ" outside Cathedral Church of the Advent in Birmingham: Well, they got me thinking of what the Christian Church is centrally and anchoredly about. Add to that the third verse of Lou Christie's number-one song from 1966, "Lightnin' Strikes"; and it's probably all there. One's ecclesiology, I mean. "Dangerous Corner" by J.B. Priestley, which was first performed in London in 1932, unmasks the human tragedy of self-serving, manipulation, and deception in about as unrelieved a manner as could be imagined. The last scene but one, which leads directly to a character's suicide, surely rips the curtain off our world's endemic conspiratorial malice. It is almost a pure enactment of the "low anthropology" that is endemic to us. But the playwright offers us no hope. He actually, explicitly dismisses the antidote of faith in God. I so want to enter that scene myself, speaking sincerely and personally, and address the desperate "hero". He's got it mostly right, you see; his diagnosis is accurate. But we believe in God -- and not a "deistic"/hands-off sort of force, but rather: Pure Empathy, Pure Sympathy, Pure Mercy, Pure Grace. Our ecclesiology, therefore, is the Church, in whatever form, as Embodiment of One-Way Love. That's PZ's ecclesiology. That's Lou Christie's "chapel in the pines" (1966). That's the churches of refuge at the end of War of the Worlds (1953), that's 'Mr. Carpenter' in Day the Earth Stood Still (1951), that's the Isaiah 2, verse 4 climax of The Colossus of New York (1958), that's the hymn chorale at the end of The Space Children (1958), that's the Christ-figure at the conclusion of The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957). And so it goes. When the curtain is ripped away on life as it really is and people as they really are, all that's needed is One Helping Hand, One "Next Voice You Hear" (1951), One... Man from Galilee (Ocean, 1971/Elvis, 1972), One Jesus Christ Superstar. LUV U.

Balancing on the razor-thin edge between the pedantic “what would REALLY happen if a guy kept slowly shrinking?” with “sure nerd, but let's still make it a fun story”, Jack Arnold directs a domestic drama, a survivalist story, and everything in between as he questions foundational questions of existing in his classic science fiction tale. Perceptions of safety, masculinity, and the infinite shift and fade in this allegory of manhood in the modern age. Join our Patreon and support the podcast!

FROM THE FROZEN WASTES OF THE ARCTIC TO THE DEPTHS OF THE AFRICAN JUNGLE, THE ARID DESERTS OF MEXICO, AND THE AMERICAN MIDWEST THEY CAME… Welcome to part two of Gabe and Patrick's look back at the biggest year in giant monster movie history.

Remember to also check out part one, which covers Nathan H. Juran's 20 Million Miles to Earth, Roger Corman's Attack of the Crab Monsters, Jack Arnold's The Incredible Shrinking Man, and Kurt Neumann's Kronos.

FROM THE FURTHEST REACHES OF SPACE AND THE DEEPEST DEPTHS OF THE SEA CAME ALIENS, MUTATED CREATURES, AND OTHER LARGE, SCARY ALLEGORIES! Welcome to another patented Genre Grinder deep dive into a specific year where a specific genre peaked. This time, Patrick and Gabe are looking at 15 of 17 movies about gigantic monsters released in some capacity during the year 1957 (festival, roll-out, wide, et cetera). The other two are a lost film (Tokyo 1960) and one already covered on a different episode of Genre Grinder (Quatermass II). Not unexpectedly, the conversation carried on for some time, so the complete 15-movie discussion will be spread over three episodes. In part one, following an intro to the genre and era, we're covering Nathan H. Juran's 20 Million Miles to Earth, Roger Corman's Attack of the Crab Monsters, Jack Arnold's The Incredible Shrinking Man, and Kurt Neumann's Kronos. Here's the full Letterboxd list we are working from: https://letterboxd.com/gabepowers/list/1957-giant-monster-movies/ 00:00 – Intro: Why were there so many Giant Monster movies in 1957? 13:21 – 20 Million Miles to Earth and the cinema of Ray Harryhausen 42:47 – Attack of the Crab Monsters and the cinema of Roger Corman 1:02:46 – The Incredible Shrinking Man and post-WWII gender politics 1:26:40 – Kronos 1:48:27 – Outro If you are in a position to make the world a better place, please consider the following fundraisers: Trans Lifeline: https://translifeline.org/ Palestine Children's Relief Fund: https://pcrf1.app.neoncrm.com/forms/gaza-relief Anera Gaza Aid: https://www.anera.org/where-we-work/palestine/gaza/ Donations 4 Abortions (state by state abortion funds): https://donations4abortion.com/

Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954), Revenge of the Creature (1955), The Creature Walks Among Us (1956). And now, we come to the end of our Universal Monster episodes, having made our way through all the Dracula, Frankenstein, Invisible Man, Mummy, and the Wolf Man films, we now take a dive into the Black Lagoon! Coming out a little less than a decade after the last Universal Monster film (no, I'm not counting A&C Meet Frankenstein), it gave birth to a whole new generation of monster fans that might not have been around for the first cycle. And it did make quite the splash amongst fans, enough to permanently give its spot in the Universal Monster class. And there is a reason for that. Join us while we take a deep dive into these films, maybe pushing you into the deep end of some of them, discussing some things you maybe didn't know about them, and hopefully, if we're doing our jobs, make you revisit them and think about them a little differently, or at least a little more. That's the beauty of films, that no matter how many times you may have seen it, you never know what the next viewing experience will bring you. Films mentioned in this episode: Creature from the Black Lagoon (1954), The Creature Walks Among Us (1956), Curse of the Werewolf (1961), The Deadly Mantis (1957), Demon of Paradise (1987), Dracula (1931), Frankenstein (1931), Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982), The Giant Claw (1957), House of Dracula (1945), House of Frankenstein (1944), Humanoids from the Deep (1980), The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957), It Came from Outer Space (1953), Jaws 3-D (1983), King Kong (1933), Mad Monster Party? (1967), The Mole People (1956), The Mummy (1932), Octaman (1971), Revenge of the Creature (1955), The Shape of Water (2017), She-Wolf of London (1946), Son of Frankenstein (1939), Tarantula (1955), The Thing from Another World (1951), This Island Earth (1955), The Wolf Man (1941)

We are back from our break for our SEASON 3 PREMIERE!!! Hey! We've lasted longer than most Netflix shows! To kick off 2024, we are celebrating Criterion Channel's wonderful CAT COLLECTION for our CAT EPISODE! Cats rule the Internet, and this podcast is on the Internet, so kitty cats rule us as well. We pair cannabis with the Czech New Wave weirdness of THE CASSANDRA CAT (1963) and the existential 50s sci-fi dread of THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN (1957) from CREATURE FROM THE BLACK LAGOON director Jack Arnold and legendary author Richard Matheson. We start the episode by discussing Jodie Foster's thoughts on Gen Z and Philena's love of SALTBURN (with some thoughts on its mid-00s nostalgia subtext). We also ask Greg just how much Mickey Mouse porn he's created since STEAMBOAT WILLIE went public domain on January 1st, and dive into the BARBIE adapted screenplay controversy. You also get Bob's thoughtful audio essay on the life and career of the true star of THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN, Oragey, the marmalade tabby cat and two-time Patsy Award winner (the animal Oscars).

Tower of London (1962), Ghost Nursing (1982), and Stir of Echoes (1999). Believe it or not, but it's a tradition to tell spooky stories around Christmas time. Just think of Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol! While some tales might be told to give one pause about how they are acting towards others, to maybe change your ways, or some told to pass on a message of hope, while others are there just to scare the crap out of you! In this episode, we're going to cover three completely different films that all deal with ghosts, in a variety of settings, times, and even countries! This just shows how international the ghost story is, though maybe changed around a bit depending on your beliefs, there is always a reason for these spirts to appear. Movies mentioned in this episode are: The Acid Eaters (1967), Black Christmas (1974), Blacula (1972), Brutal Sorcery (1983), Curse of the Undead (1959), Dream Home (2010), Duel (1971), Easy Money (1969), Eat My Dust (1976), Friday the 13th (1980), Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984), Ghost Nursing (1982), Haunted Palace (1963), House of Usher (1960), The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957), Krampus (2015), The Legend of Hell House (1973), Mr. Vampire (1985), The Pit and the Pendulum (1961), Pit Stop (1969), The Raven (1963), Seeding of a Ghost (1983), Silent Night Deadly Night (1984), The Sixth Sense (1999), Stir of Echoes (1999), The Terror (1963), Tower of London (1962), The Trip (1967), The Twilight People (1972), War of the Colossal Beast (1958)

Move over Ant-Man: David and Rob are discussing the original shrinking Scott, of THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN (1957). In director Jack Arnold and writer Richard Matheson's scifi classic, a man exposed to stray radiation begins to steadily shrink, as his humanity is stripped away layer by layer. What makes a man, a man? We're talking emasculation and the artificiality of the American Dream. Meanwhile, jumping across the Pacific, GODZILLA (1954, a.k.a. GOJIRA) uses its kaiju to directly comment on the atomic bomb and its fallout. The Cadaver Dogs want to see how both America and Japan evolved and responded to the devastation that followed Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The climactic ending of World War II changed the world forever… and unleashed a giant nuclear lizard monster upon Tokyo. 0:06:38 - The Incredible Shrinking Man 0:27:10 - Godzilla 0:46:04 - Comparisons 1:01:39 - Bone Reviews Up Next: HOUSE (1977) / HOUSE (1985) Follow us at: instagram.com/cadaverdogspod twitter.com/cadaverdogspod facebook.com/cadaverdogspod . “Revisiting THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN,” by Maria Tatar blogs.harvard.edu/tatar/2022/11/05/revisiting-the-incredible-shrinking-man-and-it-still-holds-up-after-65-years/ “The Incredible Shrinking Man Saw Beyond the Material Facade of Post-War Prosperity,” by Dan Persons tor.com/2021/09/15/the-incredible-shrinking-man-saw-beyond-the-material-facade-of-post-war-prosperity/ “How American Occupation Changed Japanese Culture,” by The Cold War youtu.be/olR9sOeR8oQ .

In this very special Old Soul episode we discuss the amazing worlds of Sci-Fi and Horror with Dr. Roger Solberg! Dr. Solberg is a Professor Emeritus of English at Pennsylvania Western University-Edinboro. Before retiring in June 2022 he taught at Edinboro since 1989. In addition to teaching Literature and Film courses, he is also a three-time Jeopardy! champion (aka he knows A LOT!). Dr. Solberg walks us through the earliest creations of Horror and Sci-Fi novels/novellas and the transition to adapting these works into early films. We overview some of his favorite features and how the genres have evolved throughout the years. We are so grateful to learn more from him on the highlights (and lowlights) of some of Hollywood's most creative, inventive films!Please Comment, Rate, and Share our episodes and tell us what you like and what you want to hear more of!—Be sure to check us out onOur website: https://the-old-soul-movie-podcast.simplecast.com/FacebookTwitter: @oldsoulpodInstagram: @oldsoulmoviepodcast MoviesFrankenstein (1910) – Thomas EdisonLife without Soul (1915)Frankenstein (1931)– Boris Karloff Nosferatu (1922)Dracula (1931) – Bela Lugosi The Phantom of the Opera (1925) – Lon ChaneyIsland of Lost Souls (1932) Mystery of the Wax Museum (1933)Doctor X (1932)London After Midnight (1927)The Mummy (1932) – Universal(Westworld Series (2016-) / Jurassic Park (1993))Bride of Frankenstein (1935)Young Frankenstein (1974)This Island Earth (1955)The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957)The Mole People (1956)The Deadly Mantis (1957)The Quatermass Xperiment (1955) / aka The Creeping UnknownQuatermass 2 (1957) / aka Enemy from SpaceThe Curse of Frankenstein (1957) - HammerHorror of Dracula (1958) - HammerThe Curse of the Werewolf (1961) - HammerThe Mummy (1959) - HammerThe Phantom of the Opera (1962) - Hammer The Brides of Dracula (1960) - HammerThe Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)Psycho (1960)Night of the Living Dead (1968)2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992) – Frances Ford Coppola Dracula (1979) - Frank LangellaMary Shelley's Frankenstein (1994) – Kenneth Branagh / Robert De Niro(Henry V (1989) - Kenneth Branagh / Hamlet (1996) – Kenneth Branagh)Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1931) – Fredric MarchThe Hunchback of Notre Dame (1939)Island of Lost Souls (1932) – Charles Laughton [Note – Yes!

The Mother Shelley of all questions: who is the monster - the creature or the man who made them? Or, in this episode, who is the barbarian and who is the muse?? Looking back at two top films from the past year, the Cadaver Dogs examine how the post #metoo era is presented in horror… through a male perspective. Travis Stevens' artistic film A WOUNDED FAWN (starring Josh Ruben of Werewolves Within and Scare Me) sends us to a time when the Furies were feared by all and muses used their sexuality to inspire artists. We analyze the presence of ancient myths today, focusing in on the #MeToo movement with men's abuse of female artists, how the women reclaimed their power, and how the men are adjusting. Then, join us down in the tunnels for BARBARIAN (starring scream kings Bill Skarsgaard and Justin Long). Down here, we have cancel culture, Frankenstein's monster, male fragility, and false redemption. All-in-all, what we really ask is: do male filmmakers have a right to tell these stories now? And, what do they mean? At Cadaver Dogs, we ask the hard questions and have the hard conversations, but it's all fun down here - we have cookies! And t-shirts! 07:06 - A Wounded Fawn 24:43: - Barbarian 48:48 - Comparisons 1:19:42 - Bone Reviews . Up Next: GODZILLA (1954) / THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN (1957) .

Arne Hendriks is onderzoeker, kunstenaar en kunsthistoricus. Sinds 2007 onderzoekt hij The incredible shrinking man. De belofte van de kleine mens. Want krimp levert ruimte op. In huis, in de boodschappentas, in de stad en op de planeet. Na een leven van residenties hebben Club Gewalt en Johan Idema hem het theater in gelokt. We praten erover met hem. We? Ja, want Tom Helmer heeft een co-host: Ilse Bijlstra heet ze. Ze loopt nu nog stage, maar zij wordt een hele grote. kaarten en info: www.theaterbellevue.nl/theincredibleshrinkingman onze podcastaflevering met Club Gewalt: https://tinyurl.com/2nbc9c7s Interview: Tom Helmer en Ilse Bijlstra Montage: Tom Helmer en Ilse Bijlstra Muziek: The Infinitesemal van Club Gewalt. Liedtekst The Infinitesemal “I was continuing to shrink, to become… What? The infinitesimal? What was I? Still a human being? Or was I the man of the future? If there were other bursts of radiation, other clouds drifting across seas and continents, would other beings follow me into this vast new world? So close, the infinitesimal and the infinite. But suddenly I knew they were really the two ends of the same concept. The unbelievably small and the unbelievably vast eventually meet, like the closing of a gigantic circle. I looked up, as if somehow I would grasp the heavens, the universe, worlds beyond number. God's silver tapestry spread across the night. And in that moment I knew the answer to the riddle of the infinite. I had thought in terms of Man's own limited dimension. I had presumed upon Nature. That existence begins and ends is Man's conception, not Nature's. And I felt my body dwindling, melting, becoming nothing. My fears melted away and in their place came acceptance. All this vast majesty of creation, it had to mean something. And then I meant something too. Yes, smaller than the smallest, I meant something too. To God, there is no zero.” “I still exist.”
The festival continues with Part Two, featuring TEN more movies, letters I-R! We'd better get right to it!A chance encounter with a strange mist causes a man to begin to shrink! His whole body, not just...you know. What an emasculating experience for The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957). Even the cat wants to eat him!Did you see that hole in the ground? Yeah, the one with the water in the bottom. Do you think that maybe we should start making human sacrifices and pour blood into it? Yeah? I think it's a great plan, too! That's Jug Face (2013).I've always heard that Australia is such a beautiful place. And seemingly all of the wildlife there is ultra-deadly. But now you might just wake up with a stone of death on your pillow! And then one of those ultra-deadly animals is going to kill you, because you're marked for death. Not in the Steven Seagal way, but in the Kadaicha (1988) way.Look fellas, Elaine Parks may be a tempting sight, but you may want to avoid drinking anything that she prepares for you. You may fall so deeply for The Love Witch (2016), that it kills you.What is deadlier than one mummy hand? TWO mummy hands! But the title only mentions one. Sorry. It's the first sequel to the Universal Monsters classic, The Mummy's Hand (1940)!What Linnea Quigley's character does with that lipstick is really the stand-out scene. Can anything else possibly liven up this Night of the Demons (1988)?Is it just me, or has Carol Kane always seemed just a tiny bit on the verge of becoming completely unhinged? Well, Office Killer (1997) has fulfilled that fantasy for me.A Japanese silent film that was lost for nearly forty-five years, then rediscovered in a shed by its director? An interesting film preservation method for A Page of Madness (1926).Is that villa actually haunted by the spirit of a nymphomaniac? Or is the brain of Franco Nero's character just a little bit of a mess? Let's visit A Quiet Place in the Country (1968) and try to find out.Unrequited love. Such a difficult situation to live with. Especially when you've been manipulated. But the answer is not going to Cambodia and using a zombie formula against your rival! Well, it is in Revolt of the Zombies (1936).

Kevin and Chris hit the penultimate episode of their Universal Monster movie series with two very interesting films. One has a giant deadly creature on the loose (yet again) and the other's main villain is the existence of man. In other words, a GREAT double-feature!
John 3:30 "He must become greater, I must become less." John the Baptist was called to get people ready before the coming of the Lord. John acknowledged Jesus John said yes to the calling John became lesser so Christ could become greater John didn't compromise.

So we all know that Father Chuck's the Sci-Fi Guy and JP is the Horror Guy. But what happens the two are combined for Halloween? You get an in-depth look at the Atomic Age Sci-Fi & Horror of the 1950s, baby! While people are planning their lists of horror movies to watch during October, people tend to lean toward the gothic, the spooky, and the straight-up uncanny. But most people seem to forget that there's a place in the Halloween Canon of Movies for films like Invasion of the Body Snatchers, War of the Worlds, The Incredible Shrinking Man, and so much more. Listen to JP and Father Chuck talk about some of their favorites, the historical context and meaning behind these films, and they even wander into "comeuppance horror" that was popularized by EC Comic titles like Tales From the Crypt, which was running concurrently with the Atomic Age. So let the Masters of Divinity guide you through some must-watch movies you'll want to add to your Halloween movie marathon this year. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/masters-of-divinity/message

After that we chat about Y: THE LAST MAN, WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS, and lastly end the show with another episode of WHAT IF . . .?
This week Terry and Paul eat some really stale cake and take a detour into 1957's The Incredible Shrinking Man. Mr. Scott Carey has a problem, he is getting smaller by the moment and there is no cure. As his frame shrinks, his problems only get bigger and bigger...
It's the final taboo, the forbidden snack, human flesh. In this episode we talk about people who eat people and discover it's one of the most complex horror tropes we've covered so far.Includes discussions of The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957), Block Island Sound (2020), Spiral (2021), Man from Deep River (1972), The Hills Have Eyes (1977), Frightmare (1974), We Are What We Are (2010), Dumplings (2004), Raw (2016), The Cook, the Thief, his Wife and Her Lover (1989) and more.
Last summer, I thought it was a good time to talk about the late, great Richard Matheson, who brought us everything from half your favorite Twilight Zone episodes to The Incredible Shrinking Man, and specifically... the timeless (or timely) Apocalyptic classic: I Am Legend, aka The Last Man on Earth and The Omega Man. I did cut off the personal plea to vote Biden/Harris from the original video, but you can still watch that part on Youtube... --Please leave us a rating on Apple Podcasts/iTunes!-- Website: pendantaudio.com Twitter: @pendantweb Facebook: facebook.com/pendantaudio Tumblr: pendantaudio.tumblr.com YouTube: youtube.com/pendantproductions
Jack Arnold, who died at the age of 75 in 1992, was the 1950s master of the science fiction film. Among the films he directed were It Came From Outer Space, The Creature from the Black Lagoon, Revenge of the Creature, Tarantula, and The Incredible Shrinking Man. The Probabilities crew – Richard A. Lupoff, Lawrence Davidson and Richard Wolinsky – received a small stipend from a science fiction convention and flew to Los Angeles to interview Jack Arnold in his office at Universal Studios. The interview is undated but was recorded in around 1980, give or take a year. Arnold's memory was fuzzy on when films were released. IMDb lists It Came from Outer Space, along with two film noirs in 1953, Creature from the Black Lagoon in 1954 and Revenge of the Creature in 1955. The first western, The Man from Bitter Ridge along with Tarantula and his work on This Island Earth also came from 1955. The rest of the westerns, along with The Incredible Shrinking Man and the Peter Sellers classic The Mouse That Roared, came between 1956 and 1959. After that, he directed a couple more A pictures, as he called them, but his primary work moved to television, and from then until his retirement in 1984, he was constantly working on projects for the small screen, interspersed with the occasional film. At the end of the interview, he discusses a remake of Conan Doyle's The Lost World, complete with storyboards. That project never did get off the ground, though it's possible later versions used some of Arnold's pre-planning. And, not to forget, he helped turn Gilligan's Island into a cultural (for better or worse) icon. Remastered and re-edited by Richard Wolinsky in July 2021, this interview has not been heard in forty years, and has never been publicly available in its entirety.

The Attack of the 50ft Woman (1954) The 1958 science fiction film directed by Nathan H Juran and starring Allison Hayes, William Hudson and Yvette Vickers, was released as other giant monster films were being released. Originally considered just a concept, the film would be put in production independently and released by Allied Artist. The film dealt with a heiress who has an encounter with a UFO and is grown much to her philandering husband's dismay. The Incredible Shrinking Woman (1981) The science fiction comedy film directed by Joel Schumacher and written by Lily Tomlin and life partner Jane Wagner, stars Elizabeth Wilson, Lily Tomlin, Charles Grodin, Ned Beatty and John Glover, a take off of the 1957 classic film The Incredible Shrinking Man. Lily Tomlin plays four parts in the film. Interestingly enough, the film deals with chemicals that we use in our food and cleaning products and the adverse effect these have.

We look at the TIMELY and IMPORTANT subject of HUMAN MINIATURISATION in the movies, with special emphasis on THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING MAN, FANTASTIC VOYAGE and INNERSPACE, but touching lightly on DOWNSIZING, THE INCREDIBLE SHRINKING WOMAN, BODY TROOPERS and FIRST PAVILION and with audio references to DOCTOR CYCLOPS, ATTACK OF THE PUPPET PEOPLE, ANTMAN, etc... Can human beings be greatly reduced in size (and injected into Martin Short) or are we just asking for the moon? What of the tremendous costs involved? How small is too small? And do the molecules in our fingernails contain their own tiny little universes?

We're used to titles summing up horror movies. The likes of Hospital Massacre, Sorority House Massacre, etc, don't leave much to the imagination, and little of it is apparent in the finished product. The Incredible Shrinking Man, while not a horror film in the traditional sense, is pretty darn horrifying. An obvious title that lays bare … Continue reading Really Awful Movies: Ep 232 – The Incredible Shrinking Man →
Ever since my mother first mentioned her interest in Jack Arnold's The Incredible Shrinking Man we have been looking into movies that deal with shrinking. For this grand episode we bring together all we have learned about downscaling. Keeping Jack Arnold's amazing sci-fi adventure as the center focus, we go through its story beats and analyse the deeper themes in its core while drifting off and examining links to other sci-fi movies dealing with shrinkage. Spoilers: We talk about the whole plot of the movie, so if you are sensitive, then go and see the movie first.
Agora em 2015, a série Kolchak - The Night Stalker vai comemorar 40 anos! Angélica Hellish convidou os amigos Halan Everson confira aqui a sua página no Deviant Art,Paulo Elache do Podespecular, Tiago de Lima Castro do Nerdopole e do Blog Pensamentos, pesquisas e reflexões, Douglas Exumador Fricke do Podtrash e Debates em História. Adiantamos o lançamento desse podcast para que vocês tenham a oportunidade de conhecê-la a série o quanto antes, ou assisti-la novamente. E no caso da série Kolchak, sua importância é enorme. Se você é fã de Arquivo X, Fringe, séries de ficção científica,terror,fantasia em geral, Além da Imaginação e por aí vai... Você deve, PRECISA, conhecer Kolchak. Ela é referência para várias séries muito legais. Em 1972, o produtor de TV Dan Curtis, criador de Dark Shadows , teve uma ideia para um filme feito para a TV. O filme resultante, The Night Stalker tornou-se não só um programa semanal favorito para os jovens sedentos por monstros como também se tornou um destino para uma série de atores conhecidos dos anos 30 , 40, e 50. Curtis começou a sondar suas próprias memórias de cinema muito antes de a produção começou, chamou Richard Matheson para escrever um roteiro sobre um jornalista investigativo cansado do mundo e de um vampiro na contemporânea Las Vegas. Os romances de Matheson e contos haviam inspirado uma série de filmes, de Jack Arnold de The Incredible Shrinking Man a de Roger Corman The Last Man on Earth . Ele também havia escrito os roteiros de alguns dos episódios mais memoráveis de The Twilight Zone . Ele iria escrever os dois filmes-piloto, bem como vários dos 17 episódios de uma hora da série regular. O roteiro de Matheson era uma adaptação de um romance inédito de Jeff Rice. Para protagonizar, Curtis assinou com o veterano de TV Darren McGavin ( The Case Against Brooklyn ), cuja caracterização do caça-monstro Carl Kolchak foi, em muitos aspectos, uma reprise do seu papel como o de Mickey Spillane Mike Hammer na série de TV final dos anos 50. Não apenas através de maneirismos de McGavin, mas também no diálogo, narração, estrutura da história e personagens. Também é interessante notar que a série Kolchak foi transmitida na rede de televisão na mesma época da investigação de Watergate, talvez a última vez em nossa história, quando os jornalistas foram considerados figuras heroicas, dispostas a arriscar tudo para obter a verdade e salvar a todos nós de monstros de todos os tipos. Os dois longa metragens Pânico e Morte na Cidade e O Estrangulador da Noite estão para download aqui no Cine Space Monster! Você encontra a série Kolchak E os Demônios da Noite Dublada aqui também no Cine Space Monster (agradeçam e comentem, eles merecem!) Edição de Halan Everson e Angélica
