Reviews for Attack of the 50 Foot Woman
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.
