Get ready for a giant-sized dose of 1960s counterculture chaos this Saturday, July 11, as Svengoolie presents the 1965 cult comedy-horror Village of the Giants! Loosely based on H.G. Wells’ The Food of the Gods and directed by the master of oversized creatures, Bert I. Gordon, this campy classic follows a gang of rebellious teenagers who ingest a mysterious substance called “Goo” and grow to a staggering thirty feet tall. Featuring a groovy soundtrack and a young cast including Beau Bridges and Ron Howard, it’s a quintessential piece of retro B-movie fun. While the giant teens take over the town, the Sven Squad will be on hand with plenty of oversized puns, fascinating behind-the-scenes trivia, and a colossal tower of flying rubber chickens. Don’t miss this wild, slow-motion romp—tune in to MeTV for a night of colossal retro thrills!
