In this satire of 1950s sci-fi matinees, Lou Costello plays an amateur scientist who invents a time machine that also has a way of changing people into strange things as it moves them through time. The machine turns Costello into a rocket and his girlfriend into the behemoth bride the title suggests.

The machine turns Costello into a rocket and his girlfriend into the behemoth bride the title suggests.

In his final film (and only starring role without partner Bud Abbott), the one and only Lou Costello plays Artie Pinsetter, a would-be inventor who needs to create something in a hurry when his girlfriend (Dorothy Provine, It?s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World) is mysteriously turned into a giantess. This wacky spoof of Attack of the 50 Foot Woman and other sci-fi ?growth? epics of that era is skillfully helmed by veteran actor/director Sidney Miller (Babes In Arms) and features such beloved comedy greats as long-time Lucille Ball foil Gale Gordon as Dorothy?s pompous uncle, plus Charles Lane, Jimmy Conlin, Joey Faye, Peter Leeds and Doodles Weaver. And it?s ?Wonder filmed? in the miracle of ?Amazorama!? Newly remastered.
