A classic from the 50's from U/I and directed by sf stalwart Jack Arnold.  I asked the board for a couple of titles and they announced Battle Royale and Shrinking Man....... 
 

I bring you peace. It may be the peace of plenty and content or the peace of unburied death.

Classic, truly a classic.
Still it refutes my idea that the theme this year was going to be non American directors. Smiley
 

I can't complain but sometimes I still do. Life's been good to me so far.

Besides "The Incredible Shrinking Man, he costarred with Leonard Nimoy and Strother Martin in his debut film "Rhubarb", "This Island Earth", "Gigot", "Breakfast at Tiffanys", Corman's "Comedy of Terrors" and "Villiage of the Giants".

Good kitty! Smiley
