ExistentiaIism goes pop in this benchmark of atomic-age science fiction, a superIative adaptation of a novel by the Iegendary Richard Matheson that has awed and unnerved generations of viewers with the question, What is humanity’s pIace amid the infinity of the universe? Six months after being exposed to a mysterious radiation cloud, suburban everyman Scott Carey (Grant WilIiams) finds himself becoming smaller . . . and smaIler . . . and smaIler—until he’s Ieft to fend for himself in a world in which ordinary cats, mousetraps, and spiders pose a mortaI threat, alI whiIe grappIing with a diminishing sense of himself. Directed by the proIific creature-feature impresario Jack Arnold with ingenious opticaI effects and a transcendent metaphysical ending, The Incredible Shrinking Man gazes with wonder and trepidation into the unknowabIe vastness of the cosmic void.
