I finished The Amazing Colossal Man, another in the long line of MST3K shows. This movie is about an army man that is burned in a plutonium blast when he tries to save a downed pilot from certain death. He lives through the blast, and doctors bandage him up only to find him completely free of scarring the very next day. His fiancée shows up, demanding to see him, only to be scared witless at his rapid growth.
He begins growing several feet per day, and quickly outgrows the hospital and military base, so they bring in a circus tent for him to live in. He keeps growing and growing, and getting progressively crazier every day. He finally cracks, jumps ship, and wanders through the Nevada desert. He goes on a rampage through Las Vegas. Scientists come up with a cure for his growth (and we get to see really cheesy shrunken animals, an elephant and a camel), but they can’t inject him in time.
I rate this movie two empty seats, one for each of the writers that should have been in the plane from the beginning.
