Attack of the 50 Foot Woman is a 1958 independently made American black-and-whitescience fiction film, produced by Bernard Woolner, directed by Nathan H. Juran (credited as Nathan Hertz), that stars Allison Hayes, William Hudson and Yvette Vickers. The screenplay was written by Mark Hanna, and the original music score was composed by Ronald Stein. The film was distributed in the United States by Allied Artists as a double feature with War of the Satellites.

The Allied Artists television version runs 75 minutes instead of 66, including a long printed crawl at the beginning and end, repeated sequences, and hold-frames designed to optically lengthen the film's running time.

The storyline concerns the plight of a wealthy heiress whose close encounter with an enormous alien in his round spacecraft causes her to grow into a giantess, complicating her marriage already troubled by a philandering husband.^[4]

Attack of the 50 Foot Woman is a variation on other 1950s science fiction films that featured size-changing humans: The Amazing Colossal Man (1957), its sequel War of the Colossal Beast (1958), and The Incredible Shrinking Man (1957). In this case, a woman is substituted for a man as the film's protagonist.^[5]

Plot[edit]

A television announcer reports sightings of a red fireball around the world. Facetiously, he calculates its path will lead it to California. Nancy Archer (Allison Hayes), a wealthy but highly troubled woman with a history of emotional instability and immoderate drinking, is driving on a road in an American desert that night. A glowing sphere settles on the deserted highway in front of her, causing her to veer off the road. When she gets out to investigate, a huge creature exits the object and reaches for her (the viewer sees only an enormous hand falling upon the screaming woman).

Nancy escapes and runs back to town, but nobody believes her story due to her known drinking problem and recent stay in a mental institution. Her philandering husband, Harry Archer (William Hudson), is more interested in his latest girlfriend, town floozy Honey Parker (Yvette Vickers), but pretends to be the good husband in the hope that Nancy will 'snap' and return to the 'booby hatch', leaving him in control of her $50 million.

Nancy bargains with Harry, asking him to search the desert with her for the 'flying satellite,' agreeing to a voluntary return to the sanatorium if they find no evidence. As night falls, they find the spacecraft. The alien creature, now seen as an enormous male humanoid, emerges. Harry fires his pistol at it, but the gunfire has no effect on the creature. Harry flees, leaving Nancy behind.

Nancy is later discovered on the roof of her pool house, but is delirious and must be sedated by her family physician, Dr. Cushing (Roy Gordon). The doctor comments on some scratches he finds on Nancy's neck, and theorizes that she was exposed to radiation. Egged on by his mistress Honey, Harry plans to inject Nancy with a lethal dose of her sedative, but when he sneaks up to her room, he discovers that she has grown into a giant. (In a scene paralleling that of Nancy's first encounter with the alien, the viewer sees only an enormous prop hand as the film characters react in horror.)

Cushing and Dr. Von Loeb, a specialist he has called in, are at a loss how to treat their patient. They keep her in a coma with morphine and restrain her with chains while waiting for the authorities. The sheriff and Jess (Ken Terrell), Nancy's faithful butler, track enormous footprints leading away from the estate to the alien sphere. Inside the sphere, they find Nancy's diamond necklace (containing the largest diamond in the world) and other large diamonds, each in a clear orb. They speculate that the jewels are being used as a power source for the alien ship. Par de seductores torrent. The huge alien reappears, and the sheriff and Jess flee.

Meanwhile, the gigantic Nancy awakens and breaks free of her restraints. She tears off the roof of her mansion and, clothed in a bikini-like arrangement of bed linens, makes her way to town, to avenge herself on her unfaithful husband. When she rips the roof off the bar to get at Harry, she spots Honey. She drops a ceiling beam on her rival, killing her. Harry panics, grabs Deputy Charlie's gun, and begins shooting, but she picks up Harry and walks away. Gunshots have no apparent effect on her. The sheriff fires a shotgun, which causes a nearby power line transformer to blow up, killing Nancy. The doctors find Harry lying dead in her hand.

Production[edit]

According to star Yvette Vickers, the estate used as the Fowler Mansion in Attack was actually a pre-World War One estate in the Hollywood Hills that had been used in other feature films; it also was rented out for parties.^[6] The original working title was The Astounding Giant Woman.

Director Nathan Juran was unhappy with the final film and changed his credit to Nathan Hertz.^[1]

Critical reception[edit]

At the film review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, the film has a score of 75%, based on 12 reviews from critics.^[7]

Remakes and sequels[edit]

With its low budget of around $88,000, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman made enough money to prompt discussion of a sequel. According to executive producer and cinematographer Jacques Marquette, the sequel was to be produced at a higher budget and in color. A script was written, but the project never advanced beyond the discussion phase.^[8]

In early 1979, Dimension Pictures announced that producer Steve Krantz was developing a $5 million remake of the film with director Paul Morrissey.^[9] This version never came into fruition.

In the mid-1980s, filmmaker Jim Wynorski considered a remake with Sybil Danning in the title role.^[10] Wynorski made it as far as a shooting a photo session with Danning dressed as the 50-foot woman.^[11] The project never materialized because Wynorski opted to film Not of This Earth (1988), a remake of Roger Corman's 1957 film of the same name.^[12]

The film was remade in 1993 by HBO under the title Attack of the 50 Ft. Woman (1993). It was directed by Christopher Guest with a script by Thirtysomething writer Joseph Dougherty and Daryl Hannah in the title role, who also produced the film.

In 1995 Fred Olen Ray produced a parody entitled Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold, starring J.J. North and Tammy Parks. Beyond the basic premise, the plot had little in common with the original film, being concerned with the side effects of a beauty-enhancing formula on two ambitious female models. The film was farcical and made on an extremely low budget. The illusion of size difference was achieved using forced perspective, unlike the earlier films which used composite imaging.

In late 2011 Roger Corman produced a 3D film titled Attack of the 50 Foot Cheerleader, released on August 25, 2012. The film was written by Mike MacLean (who also wrote Sharktopus for Corman) and was directed by Kevin O'Neill. The film stars Jena Sims, a former Miss Georgia Teen USA, in the title role, Cassie Stratford, and Olivia Alexander as Sims's rival Brittany Andrews.
