Attack of the 50 Foot Woman
“A titanic beauty spreads a macabre wave of horror! A terrifying masterpiece of shock and chills!”

Higher CrapScores mean more entertainingly bad. How we score movies.
A mistreated woman encounters a visitor from space and becomes far too large for her husband's excuses. The melodrama has a capable cast, but the giant effects struggle spectacularly to share a world with them. Brief, strange and very useful for a vintage monster double bill.
