The Incredible Shrinking Man
ActionAdventureDramaHorrorSci-Fi81 min
After a brush with radiation in a strange mist, Scott Carey begins to shrink a little more each day, turning an ordinary home into hostile terrain. Grant Williams is Scott, first trying to make sense of his condition through doctors and public scrutiny, while Randy Stuart’s Louise watches her husband diminish from full-grown man to child-size and beyond. As Scott gets smaller, familiar spaces become dangerous: a dollhouse can serve as shelter, a drop of water can hit like a flood, and the family cat and a spider in the cellar become life-or-death threats.
