Review of Dr. Cyclops (1940) by D M — 02 Feb 2011
A group of scientists are requested to visit another scientist's labortory (which happens to be located deep in the Peruvian jungle). After they are done aiding him in his expiriment, they attept to get him to return to civilzation, but he refuses.
He uses the technology he has developed to shrink them to a foot tall. The group of midgets attempt to escape and end up battling nature in the jungle. Filmed in Technicolor and with really good effects, this movie had the same director as King Kong and even received an Oscar nomination (something that I guess was still possible for a horror film back then).
If you like this, be sure to catch The Incredible Shrinking Man and Attack of the Puppet People (hell, and even Honey, I Shrunk the Kids). There is NO good reason this has never been put on DVD!
