Girls, Join Us Tonight At 8PM, As "Svengoolie" Presents "Village Of The Giants!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

                                            Originally, darlings, I was not in favor of watching this, but, because the cast has a lot of teen actors of the era, and a few too old but still playing teens, we have decided to watch this. This film was made in 1965, and the TV series" "Land Of The Giants" first appeared in 1967, so did the film foreshadow the series???????????????


                                              Not really, because the film is actually based on the H. G. Wells' work "The Food  Of  The Gods," about the idea of increasing the world's food supply by decreasing the size of people.  The actual title was made into a 1976 movie, but the idea of it was used in 1936's "The Devil Doll," and an episode of "Science Fiction Theater, a 50's TV show, called "No Food For Thought," that Universal bought the rights to, and turned into their 1955 giant spider hit "Tarantula!"


                                                 So, I know already that this will not be a sterling representation of the Wells' story.  But will it be campy enough to be fun?  That is the question, darlings!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


                                                    David says we will watch the beginning, and, if we lose interest, we can switch to something else.  I hope so,  because this does not appeal to me at all.


                                                      However, hope springs eternal.  Se, we will see you at eight, girls.  If we switch to something else, I will be sure to let you know.


                                                        Wishing you a camp filled evening, dolls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
