LUCKV #7TREASURE! I HUNT Shrunken Man to the Giont Doctor. "Lick

^ibUhat Ur"

If Doc Cyclops had a cigar he'd look like Groucho on TOUNET YOUR LIFE. At thli point thm little man has a net worthof about 2 cents.

Thorkel gets guests

A scientific party arrives to be of assist-ance to the doctor (played by Albert Deckerwith a Yul Brynner butch). They are;

Bill Stockton, mineralogist.Dr. Rupert Bulfinch, biologist.Mary Phillips, the biologist's assistant.And Steve Baker, prospector looking for

Inca gold who agrees to lead the other 3 toThorkel.

man or devil?

And what of Thorkel himselfwhat im-pression did he make? Well, let us look athim thru the eyes of Charles Strong, whoActionized him in the book

:

He might well have seemed to anignorant native like someone akin toa demon. His burly body was com-pletely encased from head to foot,when he worked (which was long, andlate into the nite), in lead laboratoryarmor. When he looked out of hisradioactive room while an experimentwas in progress, his bare round facehad an air of unreality about it. Helooked (said the author) "like somegreat uncouth monster, whose eyes re-flected the weird green light from themica window."

fUk mistake, big troubleThe recently arrived foursome is only dis-

playing normal scientific curiosity but Dr.Thorkel (who probably was a little odd tobegin with) seems to feel that they're pokingtheir noses too much into his business. So hedecides to shorten them. Not just their noses,but their whole bodies.

In short order, Bill, Mary, Dr. Bulfinchand Steve, plus Dr. Thorkel's man-of-all-work, Pedro, are hustled under the doc'sshrinkoscope, and the next thing you knowthey're as small as 5 little all-day suckers!

In fact, they're so small that if they triedto lick a stamp, the stamp would probablylick them instead

!

technicians get in licks

Now comes the good part, the part thatmade the Special Effects wizards sweat. Mostof you monster fans were around a coupleof seasons ago when THE INCREDIBLESHRINKING MAN was doing his stuff, andyou remember how great that was. Or maybe

Gotcha! One squeeze, little mand you'll feel like you wereby the Atomic Palm!

you caught one of the telecasts of THEDEVIL DOLL, the A. Merritt chiller basedon his book "Burn Witch Bum!", in whichthe menace was on a miniature scale. Well,the illusion of littleness was very large inthis flick, very large; like straight out ofgreatsville; like something described inHenry Hasse's "He Who Shrank" or RayCummings' "Girl in the Golden Atom" orFestus Pragnell's "Green Man of Kilsona"or Weaver Wright's "Micro-Man"

cot-astrophe

First off there's this cat, see, an evil felinenamed Satanas, that looks as large (andferocious) as a sabre-tooth tiger to the littlefolk. It'd be no joke for any of them to meetup with this hungry tabby: one cat nip andthey'd have had it! In one breath-takingsequence they cower in a cactus-forest asSatanas attacks them, their lives being savedwhen a dog about the size of a baby dinosaurscares the cat away.

They're even menaced by a king-sizedchicken that gives them a run for theirmoney. Juvenile delinquent teenagers in lateryears did it with cars, but this sequence wasprobably the first film of a chicken race.

the greater alligator

But the worst is yet to come for the 5 man-nikins; they run into an alligator which, intheir reduced circumstances, looks about asbig as an atomic submarine

!

Caught in the fury of a tropic thunder-storm, they are pelted by raindrops as bigas bricks ! As Henry Kuttner said at the time,"It was a rain of terror."Every creeping, crawling, swimming, fly-

ing, living thing now is a potential source ofdanger to them, and even many inanimateobjects can cause them fear.

job for jack giant-killer

What these wee ones really need is afriendly giant to sock the doc. They're prettyhampered with nothing much more to fighthim with than a pin, a broken pair ofscissors, and little things like that.

Once they almost get him with a shotgun,by pulling a string (big as a rope) attachedto the trigger; but the moment, and the op-portunity, pass.At last they get a desperate inspiration.

{**"&

J^t^

The Pygmies are feeling migmy low cis mey plan their attack against Big Daddy Cyclops.

The Pygmies defy Cyclops with their thoughts: "Come downand fight like man, you giant!"

The PEN is Mightier than the Sword! Janice is ready to bawlnow that she sees the point. And this is one ballpoint thatdoesn't give a Lifetime Guarantee!

Dr. Thorkel is so dreadfully near-sightedthat he once made a mistake and shaved themirror instead of his face. For this reasonhe keeps a number of pairs of glasses handyaround the lab. The midgets determine tohide all of them. They've just about got thejob done when Thorkel wakes up. In an en-suing skirmish one lens gets smashed on hislast pair.

Leaving him one-eyed.

the mites and the mightyNow it's war, war to the finish, between

Cyclops and the teeny-agers.Vi-sion blurred, Thorkel goes berserk,

shooting his gun, throwing furniture, turn-ing the rootn topsy-turvy. In his near-blindrage he stumbles and falls into a well, butat the last moment clutches the rope on thewindlass.

It is Steve Baker who risks his life tocharge the Cyclops and make him fall to hisdeath. The giant's day is done. Now he'llnever create that army of little spies, sub-miniature sabgoteurs and "toy" soldiers thathe had blueprinted in his brilliant but de-ranged brain.

enter the lollipops

And where do the lollipops come in?Right here.Because in 10 days, without further rays,

the tiny people have grown back to normalsize. Everything's fine and dandy, sweet ascandy. The villian took a fatal licking and wegot a happy ending; and I know for that,most any day, we're all suckers!
