The acting is campy and the plot doesn't make sense: Hayes grows to King Kong-size but still somehow manages to fit in her bedroom!

At once a riotously awful sci-fi failure and a deliriously sexy pulp success.

Campy cult proves that Hell hath no fury like a 50 foot woman scorned.

Hanna and Juran make up for their lack of supernatural thrills by packing lots of talking, fighting, dancing and drinking -- as well as a few lame jokes -- into the movie's harmless 65 minutes.

Old-school camp craziness of the tallest and most feminine variety.
